Abstract
The refractory macular edema (RME) seriously affects the patient's vision due to its repetition and ineffective drug response. RME is mainly related to the inflammatory pathway and angiogenesis pathway. At present, microglia activation and angiogenesis have also been widely focused on. With the promotion of the concept of precision diagnosis and treatment, intraocular fluid is becoming a popular evidence-based method. The detection and evaluation of aqueous humor factors can provide more accurate evidences and guidance for the treatment of RME. The purpose of this article is to review the treatment prediction and assessment progress of aqueous humor cytokines for the RME, giving evidence to provide a basis for expanding the diagnosis and treatment ideas of RME and guiding the development of personalized medical treatment.
