Assessing the efficacy and safety of DEXTENZA, sustained release dexamethasone 0.4 mg inserts, when placed within the lower eye lid canaliculus or both the upper and lower canaliculi for the treatment of pain, inflammation, and cystoid macular edema following 27 gauge vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peel for the treatment of retinal edema associated with macular pucker
