Suprachoroidal Triamcinolone Acetonide Injection in Two Chorioretinal Diseases: One Year Results

Suprachoroidal injection is a safe way for intraocular drug delivery. It was used to treat various retinal conditions.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Suprachoroidal triamcinolone acetonide injection is used to treat various retinal diseases, higher concentration of the injected material is found when the suprachoroidal space is used as an intraocular delivery pathway when compared to the conventional intravitreal pathway.
