YUTIQ® (fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant) 0.18 mg works inside your eye, delivering posterior segment uveitis treatment over time and directly where it’s needed. Your retina specialist, uveitis specialist, or other eye doctor will walk you through how YUTIQ works.

Tiny implant, lasting impact—With an implant (only 3.5 mm long) visible only to your eye doctor, YUTIQ releases medicine within the eye, and patients began seeing results as soon as 6 months after starting YUTIQ treatment.

Treatment lasts up to 36 months
Designed for the long term—YUTIQ is a tiny implant that is placed in the eye, designed to deliver a sustained release of medicine for up to 36 months.

What is the YUTIQ procedure? The eye is numbed and prepared, the implant is inserted with a tiny needle, and within 2 to 7 days you will have a follow-up appointment. A short procedure with lasting results, the YUTIQ implant is inserted while in the eye doctor’s office. It provides a low dose of steroid for up to 36 months. Talk with your retina or uveitis specialist about treatment with YUTIQ.
