“…15,16 A BCVA decrease compared with baseline observed in PRP group, while increase of BCVA compared with baseline was observed in PRP plus group. A study done by Filho et al 8 shows a LogMAR BCVA decrease of compared with baseline was observed after treatment in the PRP group, while no statistically significant change in BCVA was observed in the PRP plus group.…”

“…Furthermore, this rate was even higher in patients who underwent both PRP and IVIs of anti-VEGF. Considering that IVIs are less painful than PRP [18], patients facing multiple PRP sessions are more likely to miss followup appointments than patients facing multiple IVIs. In addition, patients receiving IVIs are generally more satisfied with treatment than patients receiving PRP or a combination of interventions [8,9,18].…”

“…Considering that IVIs are less painful than PRP [18], patients facing multiple PRP sessions are more likely to miss followup appointments than patients facing multiple IVIs. In addition, patients receiving IVIs are generally more satisfied with treatment than patients receiving PRP or a combination of interventions [8,9,18]. In addition to being painful, PRP is also associated with an increased risk of macular edema, peripheral visual field loss, and vitreous hemorrhage [8][9][10]19], which leads to lower patient satisfaction as shown in our results.…”
