Cystoid macular edema secondary to PPS maculopathy may be angiographically silent yet responsive to intravitreal steroids alone without the use of vascular endothelial growth factor agents. There is potential for both anatomic and functional improvements in such cases demonstrating the value of such treatment. Cystoid macular edema may be a delayed finding that can develop despite drug cessation. Steroid monotherapy should be further evaluated as possible first-line management for PPS maculopathy-associated CME.
