dc.description.abstract Purpose: To evaluate aqueous flare levels following intravitreal ranibizumab injection for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods: In total, 81 eyes of 79 patients who underwent intravitreal ranibizumab injection for neovascular AMD were included. Aqueous flare was evaluated before pupillary dilatation with Kowa FM-600 laser flare meter at baseline, and 1 day, and 1 month after intravitreal administration of ranibizumab 0.5 mg (0.05 mL). Results: The mean anterior chamber flare was 10.7 +/- 6.8 (range: 1.5-35.4) ph/ms before the injection, 12.5 +/- 8.9 (range: 0.3-43) ph/ms on the first day, and 9.9 +/- 5.7 (range: 0.2-28.4) ph/ms in the first month. On the first day, a subtle increasing of flare was observed. However, the difference between the mean aqueous flare levels at baseline and postoperative first day and first month was not statistically different (p>0.05). Conclusions: No significant short-term intraocular inflammation was noted in these eyes receiving ranibizumab for the treatment of neovascular AMD. en_US
