Abstract

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood component that contains a high concentration of platelets. PRP is known contains growth factors that play roles in cell regeneration, proliferation, and differentiation. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 5 groups and 5 repetitions. The test animals used were 25 male Wistars rats aged 2 months. The animal model of glaucoma was given 250 mmHg pressure on the right eye for 60 minutes and PRP was given 7 days after the pressure was increased. Then the thickness of the eye retina was observed after 8 weeks. The eye of the test animals were collected and made into histology preparations using paraffin method and Hematoxylin Eosin (HE) staining. Data were analyzed using ANOVA test with a significant level of 5% and continued with Duncan’s multiple tests. The result showed that there was a significant effect of PRP injection on the retinal thickness in the inner plexiform layer. Intravitreal-intraperitoneal injection of PRP is an effective injection route because it is capable of repairing damage based on the results of the thickness of the inner plexiform layer.
