PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) laser therapy is a medical procedure used to treat various eye conditions, particularly those related to diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). In this treatment, a laser is used to target specific areas of the retina to reduce abnormal blood vessel growth or leakage. This procedure is often combined with PRP therapy, where a concentrated form of platelets from the patient’s own blood is injected into the eye to promote healing and regeneration.
