Intravitreal Dexamethasone Implant for Patients With Central Retinal Vein Occlusion: Four-Year Outcomes in a Real-World Study

In this series of patients with macular edema secondary to CRVO, a demonstrable improvement in BCVA was recorded along with CST decrease at a long-term follow-up of four years. Only naïve treatment with DEX implant negatively correlated with visual acuity outcomes, but it was not confirmed at the multivariate analysis. Therefore, there was no evidence to support a predictive relationship between demographic and baseline anatomical factors and final BCVA and CST.

Abstract

In this series of patients with macular edema secondary to CRVO, a demonstrable improvement in BCVA was recorded along with CST decrease at a long-term follow-up of four years. Only naïve treatment with DEX implant negatively correlated with visual acuity outcomes, but it was not confirmed at the multivariate analysis. Therefore, there was no evidence to support a predictive relationship between demographic and baseline anatomical factors and final BCVA and CST.
