Official title
Prevention of Steroid-induced Glaucoma Using Anecortave Acetate
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Retisert implant is an effective therapy for controlling inflammation in patients with non-infectious posterior uveitis. One of the major complications of this device is the development of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) following implantation in 60% of patients. Glaucoma filtering is required in over 30% of patients at 2 years. Anecortave acetate (AA) has been shown to reduce steroid induced elevated IOP. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of prophylactic anterior juxtascleral depot administration of AA to prevent this Retisert induced elevated IOP.
