Suprachoroidal triamcinolone for alexandrite laser-induced macular burn.

Two days after treatment for unwanted facial hair by alexandrite laser, a young female presented with decreased vision in the right eye. During the procedure, she was not wearing protective eye goggles. Ocular examination showed a round whitish lesion at the foveal region with visual acuity of 20/400. The left eye was unremarkable. She was treated immediately with a suprachoroidal injection of triamcinolone acetonide delivered with a custom-made needle. This resulted in the improvement of visual acuity and restoration of foveal anatomy over 1-year period.
