“…DEX suppresses local inflammation effectively as long as it remains in the vitreous. 2,12,18 Reduction in VH also increases visual acuity. In the present study, 33 of the 62 eyes had VH scores of 1+ or higher before the first injection, while only 6 eyes had VH scores of 1+ or higher 6 months after injection (1+ in 5 eyes, 2+ in 1 eye).…”

Objectives:To evaluate the long-term results of intravitreal dexamethasone implant (DEX) for noninfectious uveitis.Materials and Methods:The study included 62 eyes of 44 patients treated with DEX implant due to noninfectious uveitis and followed up for at least a year. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central foveal thickness, intraocular pressure (IOP), vitreous haze score, indications, immunomodulatory therapy and steroid usage before/after injection, number of injections, and adverse events were analyzed retrospectively.Results:Average follow-up was 20 months (range 12-64 months). The female/male ratio was 29/15. Mean age was 50 years (range 22-75 years). The most frequent uveitis etiologies were idiopathic (25 patients, 40.3%) and Behçet’s uveitis. (17 patients, 27.4%) The signedmost common indication for DEX injection was cystoid macular edema together with resistant vitreous haze (26 eyes, 41.9%). Twenty-two eyes (30%) received more than one DEX injection. Mean BCVA was improved from 0.55 logMAR at baseline to 0.38, 0.32, and 0.35 after 1, 3, and 6 months, respectively (p<0.001 for each). Mean CFT was decreased from 386 μm at baseline to 288, 311, and 302 μm after 1, 3, and 6 months, respectively (p<0.001 for each). Mean IOP did not change significantly during follow-up. Five eyes (8%) received topical anti-glaucoma medication (IOP ≥25 mmHg). Eighteen (46%) of 39 phakic eyes underwent cataract surgery during follow-up. Similar efficacy of the DEX implant was observed in eyes that received multiple injections. Systemic immunomodulatory therapy did not change significantly during follow-up.Conclusion:Intravitreal DEX injection does not alter systemic immunomodulatory therapy, but may facilitate the management of noninfectious uveitis by suppressing local intraocular inflammation. Multiple injections yielded comparable visual and anatomical outcomes to single injections. Follow-up for ocular hypertension and cataract formation are important, especially in eyes receiving multiple injections.

“…It is safe and effective, especially in controlling inflammation and cystoid macular edema in intermediate uveitis. [ 91 ] Additionally, the use of 0.2 μg/day fluocinolone acetonide implant has been studied in the treatment of chronic posterior noninfectious uveitis. [ 92 ]…”

Uveitis and its complications are more common in the developing world, in which the condition occurs in up to 714 per 100,000 in the population and accounts for up to 25% of all blindness. In India, the ophthalmic sub speciality of uveitis greatly evolved in the last four decades. In the early decades most of the studies were epidemiological studies. In recent years, more research has been published due to tremendous advancements in clinical diagnosis, laboratory investigations and ancillary test and treatment modalities. In this review article, we did a medline search with key words ‘uveitis’ and ‘India’, and selectively incorporated articles showing the evolution of this sub-speciality in India.
