Özet
İntravitreal Triamsinolon Asetonit (IVTA) pek çok intraoküler inflamatuar, neovasküler ve ödematöz hastalıkta uygulanmaktadır.1 Göz içi basıncı artışı, katarakt oluşumu veya ilerlemesi, retinal yırtık , retina dekolmanı , intraoküler kanama , enfeksiyöz ve enfeksiyöz olmayan endoftalmi bildirilen komplikasyonları arasındadır.1,2 Bu çalışmada diyabete bağlı makula ödemi nedeniyle uygulanan intravitreal triamsinolon asetonit (İVTA) enjeksiyonu sonrası herpes simpleks keratiti gelişen bir olgunun tedavi süreci sunulmaktadır
