What is Dextenza ?
Dextenza is an ocular insert designed to deliver a corticosteroid medication called dexamethasone to the eye. It is used for treating pain and inflammation following ophthalmic surgery. The insert is placed in the lower conjunctival sac of the eye, where it gradually dissolves over a period of approximately 30 days, providing sustained-release medication delivery without the need for eye drops.
