Description
Summary:Purpose To evaluate the incidence rate of cystoid macular edema (CME) after uncomplicated primary operation on retinal detachment (RD) and to identify risk factors associated with postoperative CME. Methods Retrospective interventional case series of consecutive patients that underwent one RD repair either by primary vitrectomy or external procedure during a 3 years period starting on January 2012. Postoperative CME was defined as poor visual recovery associated with intraretinal hyporeflective cysts on optical coherent tomography scans (OCT) engendering central macular thickening. Results A total of 403 eyes were studied with a mean follow‐up of 6 months. The incidence of CME was 7% after pars plana vitrectomy (22/317 eyes) and 2.3% after external procedure (2/86 eyes). Risk factors for CME were : a smaller axial length (p
