Unreported side effect of intravitreal diclofenac in chronic diabetic macular edema

Conclusion: Various studies have shown the safety and efficacy of intravitreal diclofenac without any reported side effect. We report the inner retinal toxicity in the form of cystic spaces and splitting of internal limiting membrane from nerve fiber layer on the first follow-up day, postinjection, which resolved over a period of 1 month. Further studies are needed to assess the safety of intravitreal diclofenac sodium.
