Résumé

The aim of our prospective off-label, interventional clinical trial was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the fluocinolone-loop-anchoring technique over two years in eyes with iris-lens diaphragm disruption and pseudophakic cystoid macular edema. In 10 eyes, scleral fixation of fluocinolone implant was performed. Main outcome measures were the development of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central retinal thickness over 24 months, and general safety of the procedure. A significant improvement to 0.57 ± 0.38 log MAR (Snellen 20/80) (range 0-1.30) was observed (P = 0.003) at 1 month. Further improvement to 0.45 ± 036 log MAR (Snellen 20/60) was observed until month 18 (P = 0.081). Mean central retinal thickness decreased by 22% from 601.6 ± 235.5 µm to 449.1 ± 128.9 µm at 1 month. In one patient, the implant has to be removed at Month 7 because of elevated intraocular pressure and one patient after globe rupture had a retinal redetachment at Month 4. In this study, we showed that the treatment of recalcitrant pseudophakic cystoid macular edema with scleral fixated fluocinolone implant in eyes with disruption of the iris-lens diaphragm provides good anatomical and functional results with a reasonable safety profile over 24 months in eyes where pseudophakic cystoid macular edema is otherwise difficult to treat and often left untreated.
