Continuous injections needed in some cases are an economic burden for patients/healthcare system, so real-life clinical practice tends to adopt a reactive approach, ie, watch and wait for worsening symptoms, which consequently increases the risk of undertreatment and edema recurrence. On March 7th 2019, a group of experts in retinal medicine and surgery held a roundtable meeting in Madrid, Spain to discuss how to (1) optimize clinical outcomes through earlier use of fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) implant (ILUVIEN®) in patients with persistent or recurrent DME despite therapy; and, (2) to provide guidance to assist physicians in deciding which patients should be treated with ILUVIEN. In this regard, a 36-month follow-up consensus protocol is presented. In conclusion, patients that achieve a complete or partial anatomical, and preferably functional, response following one or two intravitreal dexamethasone implants, but with recurrence of edema after 3– 4 months, are deemed by the authors most likely to benefit from ILUVIEN, and the switch to FAc implant should not be delayed more than 12 months after the initiation of at least the first dexamethasone implant.Keywords: diabetic macular edema, DME, fluocinolone acetonide implant therapy, ILUVIENAdán ACabrera FFigueroa MSCervera EAscaso FJUdaondo PAbraldes MReyes MÁPazos MPessoa BArmadá FDove Medical Pressarticlediabetic macular edemadmefluocinolone acetonide implant therapyiluvienOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 2091-2107 (2020)
