Core Tip |
Administration of dexamethasone (DEX) implant is among the main therapeutic alternatives for treating the diabetic macular edema (DME). Though DEX implant provides a long-standing anatomic and visual improvement, implant induced cataract progression and intraocular pressure elevation limit its clinical use as the first-line treatment but DEX implant can sometimes be the preferred option in previously vitrectomized eyes, pseudophakic eyes, and in some specific conditions where the use of vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors is either contraindicated or suboptimal. In this mini-review, we overviewed the randomized-controlled trials, real-life clinical experiences, and meta-analyses on DEX implant treatment in DME. |
