Safety and efficacy of supraciliary dexamethasone implantation for macular oedema: a preliminary comparative study.
Eye (Lond)
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Bursa Uludag University School of Medicine, Bursa, Turkey.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dexamethasone implantation in the supraciliary (SC) space, a novel and potential effective implantation site, compared to intravitreal (IV) application.
Methods: This prospective study included 39 eyes of 38 patients with macular oedema (ME) who underwent SC and IV dexamethasone implantation (SC-DEX and IV-DEX). Patients were randomly assigned to treatment groups and followed for 3 months.
Advanced pentosan polysulfate sodium maculopathy with low cumulative exposure and hydroxychloroquine use.
Am J Ophthalmol Case Rep
December 2024
Shiley Eye Institute, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA, USA.
Purpose: To report a case of pentosan polysulfate sodium (PPS) maculopathy with cystoid macular edema (CME) with relatively low cumulative PPS exposure and a history of concurrent hydroxychloroquine use.
Observations: A 46-year-old female was treated with PPS daily for 10 years, and hydroxychloroquine intermittently over a span of five years, actively taking hydroxychloroquine for a sum of three years during PPS therapy. Despite a low risk for toxicity based on the cumulative exposure to either medication, fundoscopic examination and multimodal imaging revealed severe PPS maculopathy with CME two and a half years post-PPS cessation.
Intraoperative OCT-Guided Selective Epiretinal Membrane (ERM) Peeling Versus ERM and Internal Limiting Membrane Peeling for Tractional Macular Edema in Diabetic Eyes.
Diagnostics (Basel)
November 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Policlinico Riuniti Foggia, University of Foggia, 71122 Foggia, Italy.
Background And Aim: Despite the abundant literature, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling remains a controversial topic, especially in diabetic eyes. We compared the safety and effectiveness of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT)-assisted selective epiretinal membrane (ERM) peeling with dye-assisted ERM and ILM peeling, for the treatment of tractional diabetic macular edema (tDME).
Material And Methods: In this single-center retrospective study, we evaluated consecutive patients with tDME who underwent iOCT-assisted selective ERM peeling (Group A) or "dual blue" dye-assisted ERM and ILM peeling (Group B).
Long term efficacy and safety profile of dexamethasone intravitreal implant in retinal vein occlusions: a systematic review.
Front Med (Lausanne)
November 2024
Department of Biomedicine, Neuroscience and Advanced Diagnostic, Eye Clinic, University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy.
Background/objective: Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a common, sight-threatening vascular disorder affecting individuals of all ages, with incidence increasing with age. Due to its complex, multifactorial nature, treating RVO remains a clinical challenge. Currently, treatment strategies include laser photocoagulation (especially for branch RVO), anti-VEGF therapies, and intravitreal corticosteroids.

Division of Infectious Diseases, Integrated Health Services Institute (IHI), Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Purpose: To report a complex case of serpiginous-like choroiditis (SLC) in a patient with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-anti-proteinase 3 (PR3)-associated vasculitis with systemic involvement.
Methods: Case report.
Results: A 40-year-old male from a tuberculosis (TB)-endemic region presented with bilateral active SLC lesions.
