Patients suffering from pterygium, macular hole, corneal ulcer, and glaucoma requiring for trabeculectomy , who visited Renmin Hospital of Whuhan University, were chosen to participate in this study. The participants were randomly divided into the experimental group (PRF group) and the control group (conventional group). The PRF group received PRF membrane treatment, while the conventional group received conventional surgical treatment. Before and after surgery, participants underwent a comprehensive ophthalmological exam at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months.
The outcome indicators are monitored and can vary depending on the disease. Participants with pterygium were examined for graft dissolution and complications. Participants with macular hole were monitored for hole closure, visual acuity recovery, and retinal blood flow recovery. Participants with corneal ulcer were monitored for lesion healing and complications such as degree of corneal vascularization and opacity. Participants with glaucoma were monitored for postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), degree of conjunctival leakage in the filtration zone, and degree of scarring in the filtration zone.
