Summary
Proton beam therapy is a safe irradiation modality for choroidal melanoma. But often after
irradiation the exudation increases resulting in an exudative retinal detachment requiring
vitreoretinal surgery. It is known that intravitreally injected triamcinolone and TTT is
capable to decrease the exudation. If there is any advantage in a combined treatment this
study will investigate.
