Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of an intravitreal implant of dexamethasone (DDS-25) for the treatment of macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion.
Detailed Description
Evaluate the effects on visual acuity, electroretinography, fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography in 10 patients with macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion undergoing intravitreal injection of implant of dexamethasone (DDS-25).
