PANRETINAL PHOTOCOAGULATION VERSUS RANIBIZUMAB FOR PROLIFERATIVE DIABETIC RETINOPATHY: COMPARISON OF PERIPAPILLARY RETINAL NERVE FIBER LAYER THICKNESS IN A RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL

Purpose:Compare changes in retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness between eyes assigned to intravitreous ranibizumab or panretinal photocoagulation and assess correlations between changes in RNFL and visual field sensitivity and central subfield thickness.Methods:Eyes with proliferative diabetic
