SSK Ankara Göz Hastalıkları Merkezi ve Göz Bankası Two intravitreal injections of clindamycin and triamcinolon acetonide were performed in a case with ocular toxoplasmosis that was resistant to systemic therapy. The injections provided a better control of inflammation and a decrease in the recurrence rate. The lens opacities increased as a complication of this procedure, and cataract extraction with phacoemulsification was performed in the third month.
