Efficacy and safety of dexamethasone intravitreal implant in patients with retinal vein occlusion resistant to anti-VEGF therapy: a 12-month prospective study

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of repeated intravitreal dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex) injections administrated on an "as-needed" protocol for retinal vein occlusion patients with macular oedema, previously subjected to at least five anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections with poor or no response. Methods: Prospective interventional case series of 13 branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and 10 central retinal...
