Face‐down positioning vs other positioning

Quality of life assessments at 3 months or later (higher is favored) · people with primary macula‐involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachments

It is very uncertain whether face‐down positioning changes quality of life assessments at 3 months or later (higher is favored) compared with other positioning (very low certainty).
