Clinical research on intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide for treating macular edema caused by pre-retinal membrane of the macular
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and complications of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide(TA)for the treatment of macular edema caused by pre-retinal membrane of the macular. <p>METHODS: Totally 23 patients(24 eyes)with macular edema caused by pre-retinal membrane of the macular wer...

The average central macular thickness decreased from 522±126μm before treatment to 264±115μm, 245±128μm, 286±131μm at 10, 30, 90d after treatment. Macular edema reduced.
