Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Purpose: Outcomes of retinal detachment (RD) have been discussed in detail in many reports of patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). This study tries to understand the outcomes of vitreoretinal (VR) surgery for indications other than RD in the eyes with RP. Methods: This is a retrospective study that includes clinical data from January 2013 to December 2021. Patients with RP who were treated with a VR surgical intervention were included in the study. The primary outcome of the study was to assess the changes in best-corrected visual acuity. Results: Forty-four eyes of 40 patients with RP were included in the study. Nearly half of the eyes (43%, 19/44) presented from 1 month to 1 year after the onset of diminished vision, with or without floaters. The mean ± standard deviation (SD) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at presentation was 1.30 ± 0.79 logMAR (20/400 ± 20/125). The major surgical indications were vitreous opacities (43.2%, 19/44) and subluxated/dislocated cataractous lenses (25%, 11/44). The median follow-up duration was 8 months (interquartile range (IQR): 1.5–27). Approximately 77% (34/44) of the eyes had improvement in vision. The mean postoperative BCVA at the last follow-up was 0.95 ± 0.73 logMAR (p-value: 0.03). Conclusions: Most eyes with RP recovered well after VR surgical interventions, with short-term improvements in visual acuity. It may be crucial to address the vitreous opacities and membranes as they hinder the residual central island of vision in RP. However, appropriate counselling is required regarding the progressive nature of retinal neuronal degeneration.
