Purpose To describe the incidence, features, management, and risk factors of postintravitreal anti-VEGF endophthalmitis (PIAE) in patients undergoing treatment for exudative age-related macular degeneration in the United Kingdom.

Tamsulosin is significantly associated with floppy iris behaviour during cataract surgery. But not all of these patients will necessarily show all or any features of IFIS. The floppy iris syndrome is likely to represent a continuum of severity. Various undefined factors, diabetes not being one of them, may have a contributory role. Non-selective alpha-1-antagonists are unlikely to be associated with IFIS.
Combined use of FA and ICGA are valuable tools with which to assess CNV and provide better vessel delineation than can be obtained with only color images. Parameters used to assess CNV, such as leakage, area, diameter, and tortuosity, may be useful measures for evaluating treatment. Videography is useful for detecting early leakage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
