A 41-year-old woman diagnosed with RP was referred to our outpatient clinic due to severe visual deterioration in both eyes. The patient was treated with topical carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, topical corticosteroids and intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injections, but her ME recurred. Intravitreal 0.7 mg dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex, Allergan) was administered into both eyes without complications. On the fourth day after both injections, visual acuity improved and ME almost totally resolved. No recurrence was observed at follow-up six months later.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMacular edemaretinitis pigmentosadexamethasone implantArticle46417918110.4274/tjo.604372-s2.0-8498348883028058154N/AtrdizinikyokturWOS:000393279900007N/A
