1 Department of Ophthalmology, Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal de Creteil University Paris Est Creteil, Creteil - France.
Purpose: To compare the optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) findings of the superficial capillary plexus (SCP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP) in eyes with pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (PCME) with those of fluorescein angiography (FA) and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and to compare PCME vascular density values of the SCP and DCP with those of healthy eyes.
Methods: In this retrospective observational study, 13 eyes (12 patients) with PCME underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic examinations including visual acuity, FA, SD-OCT, and OCT-A. The vascular density of the SCP and DCP were measured using AngioAnalytics software in all PCME eyes and compared with 46 healthy eyes of 25 subjects. Read More

Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine University Vita-Salute San Raffaele in Milan and University Hospital San Raffaele in Milan, Milan - Italy.
Purpose: Intravitreal implantation of dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex®) is being widely used for the treatment of macular edema (ME) after branch or central retinal vein occlusion, diabetic ME, and persistent ME associated with uveitis or Irvine-Gass syndrome. We describe a complication: migration of the dexamethasone implant into the anterior chamber through basal iridectomy (Ando) in a pseudophakic patient with development of corneal edema and secondary high intraocular pressure.
Methods: This is a case report of migration of Ozurdex® through basal iridectomy in a pseudophakic patient with iris claw lens. Read More

Centre hospitalier national ophtalmologique des Quinze-Vingts, 28, rue de Charenton, 75012 Paris, France.
Introduction: The intravitreal dexamethasone implant has shown efficacy in the treatment of macular edema (ME) arising after retinal venous occlusions (central or branch), and in the treatment of non-infectious uveitis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of this implant in the treatment of other diffuse macular edemas with an inflammatory mechanism.
Materials And Methods: We carried out a retrospective cohort study over 2 years: from January 2012 to December 2013, including all patients who received at least one injection of intravitreal dexamethasone implant, excluding venous occlusions and non-infectious uveitis. Read More
