(A) Mean ± SD central retinal thickness (CRT) values collected at T₀ and at each follow-up visit in control and combined therapy groups, considering the overall population. (B) Representative OCT scans collected at T₀ (A, D), at the 4-month follow-up (B, E), and at the 6-month follow-up visits (C, F) in combined therapy (left panel) and control (right panel) patients. In the combined therapy group (left side, A), macular edema, characterized by intraretinal fluid and hyperreflective material inside the cyst, was present at T₀; macular edema was completely resolved after combined therapy at the 4- and 6-month follow-up (left side, B and C). In the control group (right side, D), macular edema, characterized by intraretinal and subretinal fluid, was present at T₀; after DEX-IVT at the 4-month follow-up (right side, E), complete reabsorption of subretinal fluid with persistence of intraretinal fluid was observed; complete reabsorption of intraretinal fluid was recorded at the 6-month follow-up (right side, F). **p = 0.01.
