Macular edema persisted over the following 12 weeks despite treatment with three subsequent sub-Tenon's injections of triamcinolone acetonide (40 mg in 1 mL), a 4-week course of topical prednisolone acetate 1%, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drops (Figures 1(a) and 1(b)). This treatment resulted in complete resolution of CME with improvement in VA to 20/30 OD (Figures 1(c)-1(e)).
