Four cases of accidental intraocular injection of deposteroid preparation treated by early vitrectomy are reported. Previous reports indicate that with conservative management loss of vision is due to retinal detachment or optic neuropathy. Early vitrectomy is advocated to allow identification and treatment of retinal breaks to prevent retinal detachment and the removal of potentially retino-toxic preservatives and carriers contained in the steroid preparations. Immediate paracentesis may prevent ischaemic optic neuropathy.
