Dexamethasone intravitreal implant in the treatment of diabetic macular edema
Diabetic macular edema (DME) resembles a chronic, low-grade inflammatory reaction, and is characterized by blood-retinal barrier (BRB) breakdown and retinal capillary leakage. Corticosteroids are of therapeutic benefit because of their anti-inflammatory, antiangiogenic, and BRB-stabilizing properties. Delivery modes include periocular and intravitreal (via pars plana) injection. To offset the s...
متن کاملRefractory Diabetic Macular Edema
Diabetic macular edema (DME) is arguably one of the most important challenges in ophthalmology. Macular edema refractory to laser photocoagulation remains the most prevalent cause of untreatable vision loss in diabetes and is responsible for visual disability in millions of people worldwide. The lack of an effective therapeutic solution accounts for the range of interventions proposed. These in...
