Abstract
To describe a novel office procedure that permits the repositioning of an Ozurdex implant from the anterior chamber back into the vitreous cavity. Description of an office technique for Ozurdex repositioning using a 30-gauge needle. In both cases, the Ozurdex implant was successfully returned to the vitreous cavity. In Case 1, the patient's visual acuities 1 and 2 weeks after this were 20/70 and 20/40, respectively, and had no further complications. In Case 2, the patient returned 1 week later, with the implant remaining posterior and a visual acuity of 20/40. The success of this novel technique in these cases demonstrates the potential to avoid a surgical procedure in the event of Ozurdex implant migration to the anterior chamber, while at the same time allowing the Ozurdex implant to remain effective in the eye.
