Animal models are indispensable for pharmaceutical investigations. However, investigators often have difficulty choosing the appropriate modal for their research. To provide a comprehensive and convenient source of information about animal models of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), the current review sorted and analyzed representative animal models for pharmacotherapy of PVR since 1976.
