Noninfectious endophthalmitis associated with intravitreal triamcinolone injection.
BACKGROUND Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone has been advocated to treat exudative macular diseases such as macular edema and choroidal neovascularization. OBJECTIVE To describe 7 patients who developed a clinical picture simulating endophthalmitis after intravitreal triamcinolone injection. METHODS Intravitreal triamcinolone injections were performed to treat refractory cystoid macul...
متن کاملSustained elevation in intraocular pressure associated with intravitreal bevacizumab injections.
This retrospective case series reports sustained elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) after single or repeated intravitreal injections of bevacizumab (Avastin; Genentech, San Francisco, CA) for wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). All six cases experienced significant and sustained elevation in IOP after single or repeated intravitreal injections of bevacizumab. Initiation or advancem...
متن کاملProphylactic selective laser trabeculoplasty in the prevention of intraocular pressure elevation after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection.
PURPOSE To evaluate the prophylactic efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty for preventing an increase in intraocular pressure (IOP) after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection. DESIGN Prospective, comparative, interventional case series. METHODS We studied 31 eyes with a baseline IOP of 21 mm Hg or more of 31 patients for which intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection w...
متن کاملEvaluation of patient age as a risk factor for intraocular pressure elevation after intravitreal triamcinolone.
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of patient age on intraocular pressure (IOP) response after intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA). DESIGN Interventional case series. METHODS A total of 164 outpatients (164 eyes) aged 21 to 80 years (mean, 56.8 years), presenting with exudative age-related maculopathy (51) or macular edema of various etiologies (113), received IVTA (4 mg/0....
متن کاملTriamcinolone-Induced Intraocular Pressure Elevation: Intravitreal Injection for Macular Edema and Posterior Subtenon Injection for Uveitis
PURPOSE To assess the effect of intravitreal and posterior subtenon injections of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) on intraocular pressure (IOP). METHODS we reviewed 42 consecutive eyes after intravitreal TA injection (IVTA) and 43 eyes following posterior subtenon TA injection (PSTA). All cases had a minimum follow-up time of three months. After injection, the value and time of the maximal IOP, ...
