Abstract
This randomized clinical trial demonstrated that patients receiving the 0.625-mg dose of IVB before PPV for the treatment of PDR-related manifestations showed similar visual acuity, but a lower incidence of perioperative TRD development compared with patients receiving the 1.25-mg and 2.5-mg doses. Clinicians should consider adopting the lowest effective dose, 0.625 mg, into clinical practice. The current study is limited by the lack of a control group receiving no IVB before PPV.
