Table 1 Baseline characteristics of the study participants in the FAc and DEX implant treatment groups
Figure 1 Study design and patient disposition. In the fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) implant cohort, 11 (from 10 patients) of the 29 eyes had been treated with a prior dexamethasone (DEX) implant. A subgroup of these (n=5 eyes from 5 patients) were assessed based on the FAc implant group having at least 12 months follow-up post-treatment and only one DEX implant being given prior to the FAc implant.
Figure 2 Changes in BCVA (A) and CFT (B) in 14 eyes over 6 months post DEX implantation. n: number of unique study eyes at individual time points. The baseline BCVA was 40.6 letters; and the baseline CFT was 470.5 µm.
Figure 3 Effect on BCVA (A) and CFT (B) 24 months post-FAc implantation in 8 eyes that completed a 24-month follow-up. Five of the eyes had previously been treated with a DEX implant. The baseline BCVA was 31.5 letters; and the baseline CFT was 594.8 µm.
Figure 4 Changes in BCVA (A, C) and CFT (B, D) in 5 eyes initially treated with a DEX implant (squares) and followed for 6 months (A, B) that were subsequently switched to a FAc implant (circles) and followed for an additional 12 months post FAc implant switch (C, D). n: number of unique study eyes at individual time points. The baseline BCVA values were as follows: a) 38.0 letters; c) 29.0 letters. The baseline CFT values were as follows: b) 499.4 µm; d) 541.0 µm.
