Long-term follow-up of patients treated with multiple fluocinolone acetonide implants for noninfectious uveitis
PURPOSE To evaluate long-term outcomes in eyes undergoing exchange of fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implants for noninfectious uveitis. METHODS In this retrospective case series, chart review was conducted of all patients treated for noninfectious uveitis with fluocinolone acetonide implants. All patients were seen at a single center between 2007 and 2010.We studied eight eyes of eight ...
متن کاملCombined Glaucoma Tube Shunt (Ahmed) and Fluocinolone Acetonide (Retisert™) Implantation Compared to Ahmed Alone in Uveitic Glaucoma
INTRODUCTION Glaucoma is a known complication of uveitis, and may require glaucoma tube shunt implantation for intraocular pressure (IOP) control. The success of glaucoma tube shunt implantation in the setting of a local ocular steroid depot in uveitic glaucoma remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine whether patients who underwent combined glaucoma tube shunt (Ahmed) and flu...
متن کاملEfficacy of low-release-rate fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implants to treat experimental uveitis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the efficacy of 0.5-mg and 0.1-mg sustained-release fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implants to inhibit ocular inflammation in a rabbit model of severe uveitis. METHODS The in vitro pharmacokinetic profile of both the 0.5-mg and 0.1-mg sustained-release fluocinolone intravitreal implants was determined during a 10-day period. A sustained-release fluocinolone acetoni...
