Abstract

We reported a new complication after dexamethasone implant injection. The patient was treated by dexamethasone implant injection for diabetic macular edema. After injection, we report an implant stucked in Berger’s space behind the crystalline lens capsule in the visual axis. This situation resolved after cataract surgery and the implant moved to a less inconvenient localization.

Anterior chamber migration of dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex®) through basal iridectomy (Ando) in a pseudophakic patient.

Alexandr Stepanov, Marco Codenotti, Andrea Ramoni … (2016)

Intravitreal implantation of dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex®) is being widely used for the treatment of macular edema (ME) after branch or central retinal vein occlusion, diabetic ME, and persistent ME associated with uveitis or Irvine-Gass syndrome. We describe a complication: migration of the dexamethasone implant into the anterior chamber through basal iridectomy (Ando) in a pseudophakic patient with development of corneal edema and secondary high intraocular pressure.

Pigment deposition on the central aspect of the posterior lens capsule in pigmentary dispersion.

Shubha Nagarajaiah, Georges Shun-Shin (2011)

We describe a case of an increasing pigmentary plaque on the posterior surface of the lens during follow-up of a case of pigment dispersion syndrome and suggest that this is a new sign of pigment dispersion.
