Dexamethasone Intravitreal Implant (Ozurdex) for Long-Term Macular Edema after Epiretinal Membrane Peeling Surgery.

Conclusions: Single IVD could significantly decrease macular edema and improve visual outcome for eyes with persistent long-term macular edema after macular ERM removal and the effect can be sustained as long as 6 months after the initial injection. However, in order to maintain the visual and anatomical outcome, repeat IVD might be considered if macular edema recurs. PMID: 30693103 [PubMed]
