Sumario:We reported a new complication after dexamethasone implant injection. The patient was treated by dexamethasone implant injection for diabetic macular edema. After injection, we report an implant stucked in Berger’s space behind the crystalline lens capsule in the visual axis. This situation resolved after cataract surgery and the implant moved to a less inconvenient localization.
