Patient-Reported Outcomes after Surgery for Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy: Post hoc Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial
Despite the complexity of PVR-RRD, significant improvements in both visual function and general QOL were observed postoperatively driven largely by psychosocial recovery. Final BCVA and baseline QOL had a greater influence on perceived recovery than anatomical success or number of surgeries. These findings highlight the importance of personalized care and rehabilitation in managing PVR-RRD patients.
