Results

Eighteen eyes in 18 patients in the triamcinolone acetonide intravitreal injection (IVTA) group and 18 eyes in 18 patients in the bevacizumab intravitreal injection (IVB) group were followed for 12 months. The mean improvement in corrected visual acuity from baseline to 12 months was 0.12 in the IVTA group and 0.33 in the IVB group, significantly greater in the IVB group. The mean reduction in central retinal thickness from baseline to 12 months was not significantly different between the two groups.

Baseline Characteristics

The IVTA group included 15 women and 6 men, with a mean age of 70.4 (range, 53-88) years, mean disease duration to first injection of 100.1 (range, 23-227) days, mean baseline logMAR best corrected visual acuity of 0.62 (range, 0.30-1.10) The mean baseline central retinal thickness was 521 microns (range, 338-828 microns) in the 10 eyes measured by Stratus OCT and 719 microns (range, 442-1088 microns) in the 11 eyes measured by Cirrus OCT.
The IVB group included 11 women and 11 men, with a mean age of 66.5 (range, 49-81) years, mean disease duration to first injection of 95.0 (range, 27-224) days, and mean baseline logMAR best corrected visual acuity of 0.58 (range, 0.30-1.05). The mean baseline central retinal thickness was 525 microns (range, 349-624 microns) in the 11 eyes measured by Stratus OCT and 699 microns (range, 378-1240 microns) in the 11 eyes measured by Cirrus OCT.
There were no significant differences between the two groups in baseline gender, age, best corrected visual acuity, or central retinal thickness.
Eight patients in the IVTA group had a history of hypertension and nine patients in the IVB group had a history of hypertension.

Participant flow

In the IVTA group, 18 eyes of 18 patients completed the 12-month follow-up, and 3 patients dropped out: 1st patient stopped coming at 4 months; 2nd patient dropped out at 6 months due to IOP elevation after the initial injection and treatment to lower IOP; 3rd patient dropped out at 9 months due to vitreous hemorrhage after the second injection.
In the IVB group, 18 eyes of 18 patients completed the 12-month follow-up, and 4 patients dropped out. 4 patients dropped out because they did not come to the hospital at 4, 6, 9, or 12 months.

Adverse events

In the IVTA group, four eyes had elevated IOP of 21 mmHg or higher; two of the four eyes with IOPs of 21 mmHg and 23 mmHg returned to normal without treatment at the next visit; one eye with an elevated IOP of 28 mmHg was treated with medication and the IOP normalized; the other whose IOP rose to 41 mmHg after the first injection required a trabeculectomy. One eye in the IVTA group developed vitreous hemorrhage after the second injection.
In the IVB group, two eyes had elevated IOP of 21 mmHg or higher; two eyes with IOPs of 21 mmHg and 22 mmHg returned to normal without treatment at the next visit.

Outcome measures

#LogMAR BCVA
In the IVTA group, logMAR BCVA significantly improved from a mean of 0.58 at baseline to a mean of 0.46 at month 12 in the 18 eyes followed for 12 months.
In the IVB group, logMAR BCVA significantly improved from a mean of 0.58 at baseline to a mean of 0.25 at month 12 in the 18 eyes followed for 12 months.
The change in logMAR BCVA from baseline to month 12 was 0.12 in the IVTA group and 0.33 in the IVB group, with the change being significantly greater in the IVB group.
The percentage of patients with a change in LogMAR BCVA of 0.3 or greater from baseline to month 12 was significantly greater in the IVB group, 22% in the IVTA group and 67% in the IVB group.
#Central retinal thickness (CRT)
In the IVTA group, CRT significantly improved from a mean of 520 microns at baseline to a mean of 216 microns at 12 months in the 9 eyes measured with Stratus OCT and from a mean of 679 microns at baseline to a mean of 372 microns at 12 months in the 9 eyes measured with Cirrus OCT, out of 18 eyes followed at 12 months.
In the IVB group, CRT significantly improved from a mean of 553 microns at baseline to a mean of 282 microns at month 12 in 8 of 18 eyes measured with Stratus OCT and from a mean of 708 microns at baseline to a mean of 346 microns at month 12 in 10 eyes measured with Cirrus OCT, out of a possible 18 eyes followed at 12 months.
The mean improvements in CRT from baseline to month 12 were 340 microns in the IVTA group and 270 microns in the IVB group in eyes measured by Stratus OCT; in eyes measured by Cirrus OCT, they were 306 microns in the IVTA group and 362 microns in the IVB group. There was no significant difference in CRT improvement between the two groups.
