Pre-vitrectomy Intravitreal Ranibizumab for Patients With Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Combined With Diabetic Macular Edema

Prospective, Single-blind, Randomised, Controlled, Multi-centre Study to Evaluate the Benefit of Ranibizumab as an Adjunctive Therapy to Vitrectomy for Patients With Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Combined With Diabetic Macular Oedema

To investigate ranibizumab's benefit on prevention of early postoperative vitreous haemorrhage in PDR-DME patients receiving vitrectomy.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Primary Objective: To investigate ranibizumab's benefit on prevention of early postoperative vitreous haemorrhage in PDR-DME patients receiving vitrectomy.

Secondary Objective:To investigate ranibizumab's additional benefit on visual improvement, facilitation of surgery and postoperative outcomes in PDR-DME patients receiving vitrectomy.

Study design: This study is a prospective, randomized, single-blinded, blank-controlled, multi-center clinical trial that requires vitrectomy for PDR-DME patients.
