Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: PPV group
Eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy underwent PPV surgery with silicone oil filling.
|
Procedure: slow-release dexamethasone implant
The eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy underwent PPV with silicone oil filling with or without slow-release dexamethasone implant at the end of surgery. |
Experimental: PPV+implant group
Eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy underwent PPV surgery with silicone oil filling and slow-release dexamethasone implant.
|
Procedure: slow-release dexamethasone implant
The eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy underwent PPV with silicone oil filling with or without slow-release dexamethasone implant at the end of surgery. |
