Intravitreal dexamethasone implant (ozurdex) in coats' disease.
[coats disease]
We
injected
an
intravitreal
dexamethasone
implant
in
two
eyes
of
2
pediatric
patients
with
Coats
'
disease
in
addition
to
other
treatment
modalities
,
such
as
intravitreal
ranibizumab
injection
and
indirect
laser
photocoagulation
.
In
both
eyes
,
intraocular
pressure
moderately
rose
in
a
temporary
fashion
.
The
dexamethasone
implant
seems
to
be
a
valuable
addition
to
the
armamentarium
of
treatment
options
for
Coats
'
disease
as
it
necessitates
fewer
injections
than
anti-
VEGF
injections
and
thereby
fewer
sessions
of
general
anesthesia
in
the
pediatric
population
.
