Key Points

This research aims to analyze the incidence and identify risk factors associated with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in a Canadian population.
Retrospective cohort design analyzing RRD cases over the last 14 years
Assessment of demographic factors, particularly sex and axial length
Evaluation of RRD occurrences post-cataract surgery
Incidence of RRD cases has increased over the last 14 years
Males have a significantly higher risk for developing RRD
A 1-2 mm increase in axial length significantly elevates the risk
RRD risk is notably increased after cataract surgery, beyond initial post-operative periods

Implication

Retrospective cohort study examines incidence and risk factors for RRD in Canadians, indicating important health implications.
