Repositioning of dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex) migrated into the anterior chamber.

Ozurdex (Allergan Inc., Irvine, CA, USA) is a biodegradable implant of dexamethasone (0.7 mg) injected into the vitreous cavity to treat macular oedema. We report a case of migration of Ozurdex into the anterior chamber in a patient who had a previous iris-claw lens implantation. Surgical removal of the implant was avoided due to the absence of anterior complications and the loss of effectiveness of the drug delivery system. Repositioning of the implant to the posterior segment is described. This case illustrates the efficacy of this technique in cases of migration into the anterior chamber in eyes without corneal decompensation.
