The Real-World Effect of Intravitreous Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Drugs on Intraocular Pressure

These analyses from real-world data indicate that anti-VEGF intravitreous injections are associated with a small but statistically significant decrease in IOP over time. A proportion of patients, on average 2.6%, experienced a sustained clinically significant IOP rise with these drugs overall compared with 1.5% in the fellow untreated eyes. However, such an increase was not seen with aflibercept.
