Imaging of Uveitis Patients Receiving Injectable Fluocinolone Acetonide Implant

Description

We will prospectively observe patients with uveitis who are either active or were recently active in the previous 6 months and are treated with the i-FA implant. All of the patients will have standard clinical exams at baseline and image quantification of their inflammation using OCT, OCTA and UWFFA (if needed). At baseline, ETDRS vision will be measured. Patients will be followed for 12 months months. During follow-up repeat imaging will be performed along with standard examinations, visual acuity and contrast sensitivity measurements. At the final visit, all tests will be repeated. Data collected will be analyzed using statistical software package. Correlations between changes in imaging quantification of inflammation scores and changes in visual acuity, clinical grades of inflammation, and contract sensitivity will be calculated.
