Brief Summary: The use of intravitreal injections of corticosteroid triamcinolone acetonide appears to be a promising treatment for a variety of ocular diseases associated with inflammation To date the only drug available Kenalog-40 Injection produced by Bristol Myers Squibb has not been formulated for intraocular use

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and potential efficacy of novel intravitreal injections of a preservative-free formulation of triamcinolone acetonide TAC-PF at two dosage levels 4 mg and 8 mg compared to anterior sub-tenon injections of TAC-PF at 20 mg

The study will be a masked randomized Phase I study that will enroll 120 participants with one of the following diseases age-related macular degeneration AMD diabetic macular edema DME central retinal vein occlusion CRVO branch retinal vein occlusion BRVO or any other retinal disease with associated macular edema At least 21 participants will be enrolled in the four designated disease strata AMD DME CRVO and BRVO The remaining 36 participants may have one of these diseases or may be enrolled with another retinal disease Within each disease strata at least seven participants will be randomized to each dosing group The participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three treatment groups

The primary outcome will be an assessment of post-injection intraocular toxicity-related events during the 3-year follow-up including cataract formation development of glaucoma and any adverse event preventing retreatment The secondary outcomes will be an improvement in best-corrected visual acuity BCVA EVA and decreases in retinal thickening and area of leakage from baseline to year 1
