Abstract
The optimal treatment for vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL) remains a challenge, as central nervous system (CNS) relapse occurs frequently, leading to the worst impact on survival. We previously proposed combined intravitreal methotrexate and systemic high-dose methotrexate therapy for this disease. This study aimed to report the long-term outcomes of patients with VRL using this combination treatment.
