Intravitreal Triamcinolone for the Treatment of Macular Edema AssociatedWith Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

Abstract

Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone appears to be a possibly effective treatment in some patients with macular edema associated with CRVO. Patients with nonischemic CRVO may respond more favorably than patients with ischemic CRVO, and retreatment may be necessary in some patients. In this case series, severe complications were not noted.
