Abstract: Purpose: To compare the pain responses of patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) undergoing panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) using either pattern scan laser (PASCAL) or navigated laser photocoagulation (NAVILAS). Methods: Patients diagnosed with PDR were randomly assigned to undergo either PASCAL or NAVILAS photocoagulation treatment. PRP was performed using the multi-shot mode with a spot size of 200-400 µm and a pulse duration of 30 ms to obtain a white-grayish spot on the retina. Parameters… Show more

“…The bright light and retinal burn are stated as painful even for adults, let alone infants, regardless of whether or not a topical anaesthetic has been administered. 13 14 In 1997, using CRI, Haigh and colleagues illustrated that topical anaesthesia alone was associated with more severe cardiorespiratory complications during and after ROP surgery. 6 Since then, a few small sample surveys have been conducted, resulting in the conclusion that topical anaesthesia alone might not adequately accommodate infants.…”

“…The search process is detailed in Figure 1. Nineteen (19) full-text articles were retrieved for review. Of the 19 papers, a paper by Röckl et al 32 was excluded since the population included patients with retinal pathologies other than diabetic retinopathy, and a breakdown of the data was not available.…”

“…18 Experience of pain may affect compliance to therapy and result to deterioration of vision. 15,[19][20][21] In addition, pain may increase the patient's risk for complications during the procedure if it stimulates sudden movement of the eye. 22 Ophthalmologists should employ methods to minimize the amount of pain experienced by their patients during ocular procedures.…”

“…In previous studies the influence of stimulus duration (Mirshahi et al 2013) and different modes of stimulus application (Inan et al 2016) on the subjective sensation of pain during photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy have been investigated. However, in these studies the treatments were not standardised to allow an evaluation of the influence of different treatment sessions, to differentiate between treatment for diabetic maculopathy and proliferative diabetic retinopathy, and background parameters that might influence the sensation of pain were not considered.…”
