Panretinal Photocoagulation: A Review of Complications

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2017
Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) is a mainstay of therapy for retinal ischemic disease. The procedure involves creating thermal burns in the peripheral retina leading to tissue coagulation, the overall consequence of which is improved retinal oxygenation.

PANRETINAL PHOTOCOAGULATION AND RETINAL OXYGENATION

Retina, 1982
Panretinal photocoagulation destroys some of the photoreceptors and thereby reduces the oxygen consumption in the outer retina and allows more O2 to flow from the choroid to the inner retina. Measurements of the preretinal oxygen tension were made in rhesus monkeys that had portions of their retinas photocoagulated.

Light panretinal photocoagulation (LPRP) versus classic panretinal photocoagulation (CPRP) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2001
We misled to verify whether a panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) performed using low levels of ARGON laser energy (light PRP) has the same efficacy as a PRP performed in a conventional fashion using argon green wavelengths (classic PRP) in eyes with high-risk proliferative diabetic retinopathy (HRPDR).

Panretinal Photocoagulation for Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

New England Journal of Medicine, 2011
A 55-year-old man with a 20-year history of type 2 diabetes mellitus was referred to a retina specialist after noticing a few black floaters in his left eye for the preceding week. His glycated hemoglobin level was 8.2%. He had no history of laser treatment for proliferative diabetic retinopathy in either eye.

Change in Diabetic Panretinal Photocoagulation Incidence

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2012
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Diabetic blindness occurs most often among working-age people. Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) can prevent this outcome. Administrative data examined changes in PRP incidence rates. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Anonymous data from the “claims submitted” files of
