Custom Needle Preparation for Suprachoroidal Steroid Injection (One Year Results)

August 9, 2022 updated by: Ahmed Abdelshafy, Benha University

One Year Results for Suprachoroidal Triamcinolone Acetonide Injection in Various Retinal Diseases

Suprachoroidal drug delivery is a recent route for managing various ocular conditions. Safety and long term results are still under investigations.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In this study, we aim to analyze the long term results of suprachoroidal injection in treating various retinal diseases to focus on its efficacy, safety and long term ocular effects as ocular hypertension, cataract progression and macular edema resolution.
