Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Treatment with Dexamethasone Intravitreal Implant in Cystoid Macular Edema Secondary to Retinal Vein Occlusion

Purpose. To evaluate retinal functional improvement by means of visual acuity and retinal sensibility examination after intravitreal dexamethasone implant in patients affected by cystoid macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion. Methods. Twenty-six consecutive patients affected by retinal vein occlusion complicated by cystoid macular edema were enrolled in this prospective interventional study. All patients underwent a baseline complete ophthalmological evaluation as well as retinal angiography, OCT examination, and microperimetry evaluation. Each patient was treated with intravitreal injection of a long-term steroid implant (Ozurdex, Allergan). Follow-up evaluations were performed at months 1, 3, and 6 and completed by OCT and MP1 examination. Clinical data underwent statistical analysis. Results. Baseline functional evaluation showed mean visual acuity of 0,63±0,42 LogMAR and retinal sensitivity of 7,93±4,73 dB (mean±standard deviation); after treatment, at day 30 we found, respectively, 0,43±0,38 LogMAR (p
