Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of patients with Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) from baseline to 4 - 6 months after last injection, with comparison between early (<9 month duration of DME) vs late (≥9 month duration of DME), and naïve vs previously treated patients.

Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
300-400 patients who have received at least 2 Ozurdex injections for the treatment of DME, were followed for at least 6 months after the last injection and with a minimal BCVA of 20/200 at baseline (before Ozurdex treatment).
You may qualify if:
- Adults (≥18 years) with diabetes
- DME in the study eye (if both eyes have DME both eyes will be included in analysis)
- BCVA minimum of 20/200 (35 letters)
- Central Macular Thickness (CMT) ≥300 µm
- Patients with DME who were treated with Ozurdex at least twice (baseline is before the first Ozurdex injection).
- Follow up of at least 6 months after the last Ozurdex injection given
- Complete records including BCVA (OCT and Fluorescein Angiography (FA) if available) throughout the follow up
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with ME not secondary to Diabetes Mellitus (DM).
- Presence of other retinopathies (AMD, RVO) or visually significant ocular morbidity (e.g. advanced glaucoma, corneal opacity)
- Previous ocular trauma or surgery other than cataract extraction
- Intravitreal triamcinolone ≤6 months before baseline
- Intravitreal bevacizumab, ranibizumab, or pegaptanib \<1 months before baseline
- Marked intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation in response to any previous steroid treatment
- Ocular Hypertension (OHT) in the study eye(s)
- IOP \>23 mm Hg without antiglaucoma medication
- IOP \>21 mm Hg with one antiglaucoma medication
- Use of 2 or more antiglaucoma medications
- Glaucoma - Visual Fields (VF) defect \> 4 dB
