Summary

This clinical trial, involving participants with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, aims to compare Methotrexate Usage Techniques in preventing Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy (PVR) after vitrectomy. The study will evaluate the development of PVR, retinal detachment recurrence, and improvement in visual acuity. Participants will undergo retinal detachment surgery using the vitrectomy technique and will be divided into two groups. One group will receive Methotrexate infusion during surgery, while the other will receive repeated Methotrexate injections post-surgery. The researcher will analyze and compare outcomes between the two groups.
