Abstract

Intravitreal injections (IVI) have become the most common intraocular procedure worldwide with increasing numbers every year. The article presents the most up-to-date review on IVI epidemiology and techniques. Unfortunately, important issues related to pre-, peri- and postinjection management lack randomized clinical trials for a final conclusion. Also, a great diversity of approaches exists worldwide. Therefore, expert consensus recommendations on IVI techniques are provided.
