BACKGROUND/AIM: To report 5-year real-world efficacy and safety data following the treatment of chronic diabetic macular oedema (DMO) with the intravitreal 0.19 mg fluocinolone acetonide implant(ILUVIEN).
METHODS: Retrospective cohort study of 31 eyes treated with ILUVIEN for chronic DMO at a tertiary centre in Birmingham (UK). Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT) were recorded at baseline, and then at 1-,2-,3-, and 5-years. Safety was assessed based on intraocular pressure (IOP) -lowering medication, surgery, and other complications.
RESULTS: BCVA significantly improved 1-year post-ILUVIEN (+4.2 letters, p < 0.05) and gradually reverted to baseline levels over the 5-year period of follow-up (+0.2 letters at year-5). A significant and sustained CRT reduction was observed throughout the 5-years. The proportion of eyes on IOP-lowering medication increased from 16% at baseline, to 70% at 5-years (p < 0.001) with eyes on a mean of 1.3 medications. Laser trabeculoplasty (n = 2), cyclodiode laser (n = 1), and trabeculoplasty and trabeculotomy (n = 1, in the same eye; 3.2%) were required for uncontrolled IOP. Other complications included endophthalmitis (n = 1) and vitreous haemorrhage (n = 1). 58% of eyes required additional intravitreal injections, with a mean 29.2 months to first injection. We observed a 69% reduction in treatment burden following treatment with ILUVIEN implant.
CONCLUSIONS: Our real-world results confirm the efficacy of the ILUVIEN implant over 5 years, with two-thirds of eyes having improved or stable visual acuity 5 years after ILUVIEN, and an overall sustained improvement in anatomical outcome. Although the rate of IOP-lowering medications use was higher than previously reported, the rate of incisional IOP-lowering surgery and other complications remained low and in keeping with rates reported in larger studies.
