Fig. 5 — a Spectral domain optical coherence tomography of a 54-year-old male patient who presented with diabetic macular edema and a visual acuity of 6/36 Snellen. b Spectral domain optical coherence tomography of the same patient after six ranibizumab injections, showing persistence of macular edema. The visual acuity was 6/36 Snellen. Note the hyperreflective foci (white arrows), the ellipsoid zone (orange arrow), and the external limiting membrane (blue arrow) disruption. c Spectral domain optical coherence tomography of the same patient after two intravitreal dexamethasone implant injections (month 12), where absorption of macular edema and decreased hyperreflective foci are apparent. The visual acuity was 6/9 Snellen
