Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of Intravitreal Anti-VEGF Injection With Intravitreal Dexamethasone Implant In Patients With Treatment-Resistant Diabetic Macular Edema
Abstract:Purpose: To assess the effectiveness of monthly anti-VEGF therapy with an intravitreal dexamethasone (DEX) implant in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) whose macular edema persists despite anti-VEGF therapy.
Materials and methods: This study included 94 eyes of 94 patients whose diabetic macular edema (Central Macular Thickness (CMT) >300 µm) persisted despite previous injections of 3 doses of anti-VEGF.
