Brief summary
Suprachoroidal injection is a safe way for intraocular drug delivery. It was used to treat various retinal conditions.
Detailed description
Suprachoroidal triamcinolone acetonide injection is used to treat various retinal diseases, higher concentration of the injected material is found when the suprachoroidal space is used as an intraocular delivery pathway when compared to the conventional intravitreal pathway.
Interventions
Suprachoroidal injection of triamcinolone acetonide

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* patients diagnosed as central serous chorioretinopathy and patients with cystoid macular edema due to irvine-gass syndrome after cataract surgery.
Exclusion criteria
* other retinal diseases that may affect CMT and final visual outcome. * Patients with dense corneal opacity.
