Short term effects of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents on cornea, anterior chamber, and intraocular pressure.

DISCUSSION: After the anti-VEGF injections, IOP and CCT values were not significantly changed and were similar in all eyes and phakic eyes; however, in these groups, there was a small but statistically significant decrease in ACD and ECD. On the contrary, there was no significant difference in pseudophakic eyes. Clinicians performing intravitreal injections must be aware of these associations for a better understanding of ACD and ECD changes in phakic eyes. PMID: 31092017 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
