Vision-related functioning in patients undergoing pneumatic retinopexy vs vitrectomy for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: A post hoc exploratory analysis of the PIVOT randomized clinical trial

JAMA Ophthalmology Aug 19, 2020

Muni RH, Francisconi CLM, Felfeli T, et al. - In this post hoc exploratory analysis of the Pneumatic Retinopexy vs Vitrectomy for the Management of Primary Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment Outcomes trial, researchers sought to examine the differences in various aspects of vision-related quality of life between pneumatic retinopexy and pars plana vitrectomy following rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair. In total, 160 patients were involved, with 81 patients (92%) and 79 patients (90%) in the PnR and PPV groups, respectively. The authors discovered that patients undergoing PnR had superior 25-Item National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire composite and subscale scores compared with PPV during the first 6 months following RRD repair. Findings suggested that PnR can be related to better patient-reported visual function outcomes in the first 6 months following RRD repair compared with PPV.
