摘要

Macular edema (ME) is the leading cause of visual loss in uveitis and may persist long after ocular inflammation has been resolved. Local steroids are the first line treatment for uveitis and uveitic ME. Dexamethasone intravitreal implant (OZURDEX?; Allergan, Inc., CA, USA) has been used to treat diabetic ME and ME secondary to retinal vein occlusion. Recent studies have also demonstrated that Ozurdex may be effective treatment for patients with persistent uveitic ME. In this review, we present the results of the real word studies concerning the efficacy and safety of Ozurdex for the treatment of uveitic ME. With the term ‘uveitis’ we mean a group of diseases which consists of many different disorders with a variety of causes; however, the etiology of most of them remains unknown. Uveitis is one of the five leading causes of visual impairment and blindness in the developed world and responsible for about 20% of legal blindness, also affecting younger patients. It is the inflammation of the uveal tract, the vascular layer between the sclera and the neuroretina, which consists posteriorly of the choroid, in the middle part of the ciliary body and anteriorly of the iris. Uveitis can be classified into anterior, intermediate, posterior and panuveitis according to the primary location of the inflammation. The term macular edema’ (ME) is used to describe the retinal thickening in the macular area caused by the breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier leading to accumulation of extracellular fluid in the intraretinal area and in the subretinal space. Uveitic ME (UME) is the main cause of visual loss in uveitis, resulting in reduced visual acuity (VA) <20/40 in about 33% of posterior uveitis cases. Panuveitis and intermediate uveitis are also significantly associated with UME, with an incidence of 66 and 65%, respectively.
