In most cases of sterile intraocular inflammation after IVB, visual acuity returned to baseline, and intraocular inflammation rarely recurred with repeat IVB or intravitreal ranibizumab.

IL-6 may serve as a photoreceptor neuroprotectant in the setting of retinal-RPE separation.

A 48-year-old man with polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal gammopathy, and skin changes (POEMS) syndrome had bilateral optic disc edema (ODE), bilateral cystoid macular edema (CME), anasarca, and elevated serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). This is the first reported example of ophthalmoscopic, angiographic, and optical coherence tomographic evidence of the combination of ODE and CME in this syndrome. This combination of features suggests that the ODE in this condition may be due to increased vascular permeability.

The results suggest a difference in rates of noninfectious vitritis for antivascular endothelial growth factor medications. Many cases tended to cluster instead of occurring at a consistent rate each year.
