Several ocular complications of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections have been reported including endophthalmitis, cataract and retinal detachment. The effect of anti-VEGF drugs on macular perfusion has been inconclusive, with mixed reports of increase, decrease or no effect on perfusion in response to anti-VEGF treatment. In many of these studies, however, patients with more ischaemic retinas were not included. Retinal ischemia is an important factor in the progression and prognosis of diabetic retinopathy.
