Task shifting of intraocular injections from physicians to nurses: a randomized single-masked noninferiority study.

Task shifting of intraocular injections to nurses can be performed without increased risk to visual function. Such a task shift can alleviate the burden of performing intraocular injections in ophthalmology departments. To our knowledge, this is the first RCT on task shifting of a surgical procedure from physicians to nurses in a high-income country.
