title: [Ozurdex, modern therapy for macular edema in central retinal vein occlusion].
abstract: We present a case report of a 56 years old patient with central retinal vein occlusion and macular edema. Intravitreal Ozurdex was effective: the disappearance of the macular edema and improvement of the visual acuity were noticed. Panretinal photocoagulation performed avoided the proliferative retinopathy.
