Table 2 Outcome of intravitreal Ozurdex implant in post-lensectomy–vitrectomy aphakic eyes
Adverse effects of migrated implant | Surgical removal of Ozurdex implant | Final outcome | Post-implant BCVA | Post-implant IOP (mmHg) | Follow-up after implant migration, months | Final location of the implant |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Corneal edema | No | Resolution of cystoid macular edema; resolution of corneal edema | 6/18 | 12 | 4 | Vitreous cavity |
Corneal edema, elevation of IOP | Yes, 40 days after implantation | Regression of inflammation, control of IOP, corneal edema persisted | 6/18 | 33 | 4 | Removed from the eye |
None | No | Improvement of hypotony | 6/6 | 12 | 3 | Vitreous cavity |
