Brief Summary

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is the most common causes of irreversible blindness in diabetic retinopathy (DR).Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs is a good adjunct to vitreous surgery for severe PDR. Some studies have confirmed that the application of anti-VEGF drugs before vitrectomy for PDR patients can reduce the difficulty of surgery and improve postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), but very few researches focused on the injections of anti-VEGF during surgery.Therefore, investigators carry out this clinical trial to compare the effects of preoperative and intraoperative intravitreal injections of ranibizumab (IVR) on vitrectomy outcomes for PDR patients.One group receive ranibizumab injection (0.5mg/0.05ml) 3-5 days before vitrectomy. Another group receive ranibizumab injection (0.5mg/0.05ml) at the end of vitrectomy. Intraoperative and postoperative indices are collected for further comparison.Investigators enroll PDR patients whose baseline characteristics including age, sex, BMI, type of diabetes, HbA1c level, duration of DM, hypertension, previous history of laser photocoagulation, status of lens, indication for surgery, baseline BCVA, IOP, baseline CRT and extent of VAG are comparable.The enrolled eyes are randomly assigned according to the Central Randomization System with a ratio of 1:1 to preoperative IVR group and intraoperative IVR group. Intraoperative including surgery time, intraoperative bleeding, intraocular electrocoagulation use, iatrogenic retinal breaks, relaxing retinotomy and silicone oil tamponade, and postoperative indices including postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central retinal thickness (CRT), postoperative vitreous hemorrhage (VH), neovascular glaucoma (NVG), recurrent retinal detachment, postoperative fibrovascular proliferation progression and reoperationare collected for further comparison.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • patients aged 18 years or more with type 1 or 2 diabetes who were clinically diagnosed with PDR;
