Eye surgery with steroid implant for membrane-related swelling

This study tests combining vitrectomy (surgery to remove the membrane from the retina) with a dexamethasone implant (a tiny steroid that is placed inside the eye to reduce swelling) for people with a specific type of eye membrane and fluid buildup in the center of the retina.

Steroid injection behind the eye for light-damage to the retina

This study tests whether a steroid injection behind the eye (a retrobulbar injection) can help people whose retina (the light-sensing layer at the back of the eye) has been damaged by looking at a strong light source, like a laser or bright flash. The treatment aims to reduce swelling and vision problems that can follow such an injury.

Steroid treatment for diabetic macular edema

This study tests whether a steroid medication can help reduce swelling in the back of the eye caused by diabetic macular edema, a complication of type 2 diabetes. If you qualify, you may receive this treatment to potentially improve your vision.

Steroid injection for diabetic macular edema

This trial tests whether a single steroid injection around the back of the eye can improve vision in people with diabetic macular edema (swelling in the center of the retina that blurs vision). It is for people who have not yet had any other eye treatments for this condition.

NCT07438119Not yet recruiting· Phase 4
Steroid implant plus aflibercept for diabetic macular edema

This trial tests whether combining a steroid implant (dexamethasone) with an anti-VEGF injection (aflibercept) works better than the injection alone for people with diabetic macular edema who haven't been treated yet. It aims to improve vision and reduce retinal swelling.

NCT04910503Recruiting· Phase 4
Compare fluocinolone and dexamethasone implants for resistant eye swelling

This trial looks at which long-acting steroid implant works better for diabetic macular swelling that did not improve enough with past treatments. It may help patients by testing a treatment option aimed at improving vision when other eye injections have not worked well.
