This builds off of Dr. Muni’s previous work which found PnR leads to better long-term integrity& structure of the cells that allow us to see, versus more invasive operating room procedures. (4 of 4) https://t.co/renkQxboAS
The research also found that retinal displacement was associated with worse aniseikonia – a condition where the difference in size or shape of images is different between a patient’s eyes. (3 of 4)
