Intravitreal sustained-release dexamethasone implant for the treatment of postoperative cystoid macular edema following vitrectomy

Previous findings have demonstrated that intravitreal sustained-release dexamethasone (DEX) implants improve functional and anatomical outcomes in patients with cystoid macular edema (CME) following cataract surgery; however, data on the influence of different surgical indications remain limited.

Description
Summary:Previous findings have demonstrated that intravitreal sustained-release dexamethasone (DEX) implants improve functional and anatomical outcomes in patients with cystoid macular edema (CME) following cataract surgery; however, data on the influence of different surgical indications remain limited. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of DEX implants in patients with persistent postoperative CME following vitrectomy, and to assess differences in treatment response regarding surgical indication, phakic status, and prior treatment received before DEX.
