RESUMO

Corticosteroids are crucial for treating inflammatory ocular conditions. The development of dexamethasone revolutionized targeted ocular therapy. Ozurdex, a dexamethasone implant, effectively treats various eye conditions but carries risks such as implant migration. This is a case of anterior segment migration of intravitreal dexamethasone implant, Ozurdex, in a patient with scleral fixation intraocular lens implant in whom conservative management with supine positioning and pharmacologic pupil dilation can help retain the implant back in the vitreous. Patients at high risk of Ozurdex migration should avoid its use. Educate patients on the risk of implant migration and signs of migration to present immediately to an ophthalmology emergency department to avoid corneal damage. It is essential to identify high-risk patients before considering Ozurdex migration. In some cases, conservative management can be initiated while preparing for surgical removal.
