Intravitreal corticossteroids have been used for therapeutic purposes in optimum doses and adverse reports have not been described. To best of our knowledge, this entity has never been reported as a problem. We report a case of successful management of iatrogenic intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide for intermediate uveitis. This case study highlights the strategy of appropriate and timely surgical management.
