Abstract. Purpose:To report the outcome of multiple intravitreal injections of triamcinolone on macular edema. Cases and Method:This retrospective study was made on 40 eyes of 40 patients who had macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion(BRVO)when examined by optical coherence tomography(OCT)and who received intravitreal injections of triamcinolone. Their age ranged from 49 to 82 years,average 62 years. The series comprised 31 phakic and 9 pseudophakic eyes. Results:Additional photocoagulation or vitreous surgery was performed in 11 eyes. In the remaining 29 eyes,foveal thickness and foveal volume significantly decreased in 13 eyes(p<0.01). These eyes received injection of triamcinolone at an average of 2.4 times. Averaged value of visual acuity significantly improved in these 13 eyes. Conclusion:Multiple intravitreal injections of triamcinolone may improve and stabilize macular edema secondary to BRVO.
