Fig. 1 This PostRD trial involving patients with macula involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment showed that face-down positioning led to a reduction in the rate and amplitude of postoperative retinal displacement and binocular diplopia in comparison with support-thebreak positioning. However, no differences were found in bestcorrected visual acuity, distortion and quality of life scores between the groups. RRD rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, LA local anesthesia, ITT intention-to-treat, ERM epiretinal membrane, BCVA bestcorrected visual acuity, FAF fundus autofluorescence imaging, QoL quality of life, IOP intraocular pressure.
