The main outcome measure was the proportion of DEX achieving an improvement ≥ 15 letters in BCVA.Results: The study analyzed 192 DEX implants administered to 97 eyes (65 patients). Among the 192 DEX analyzed, 57 (29.7%) implants achieved a BCVA improvement ≥ 15 letters (ETDRS) from baseline, with a mean time for achieving such improvement of 89.2 (39.7) days. Eyes who received an additional DEX and those with a duration of DME < 6 months had a greater probability of achieving a BCVA improvement ≥ 15 letters (odds-ratio: 2.55, p = 0.0028 and odds-ratio: 1.93, p = 0.0434). The mean (standard deviation) change in BCVA from baseline was 7.5 (14.5) letters, p < 0.0001. The mean change in central macular thickness (CMT) from baseline was − 128.0 (151.0) μm, p < 0.0001. The mean number of DEX implanted was 1.9 (0.8). Four (2.1%) DEX experienced an intraocular pressure increased ≥ 10 mm Hg; all the cases were successfully managed with topical antiglaucoma medication.Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed previous evidence suggesting that DEX is effective for improving BCVA and CMT in patients with DME.Keywords: diabetic macular edema, dexamethasone intravitreal implant, Ozurdex, best corrected visual acuity, central macular thicknessUdaondo PHervas-Ontiveros ARosemblatt AGarcia-Delpech SDove Medical Pressarticlediabetic macular edemadexamethasone intravitreal implantozurdexbest corrected visual acuitycentral macular thickness.OphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 4153-4162 (2021) |
