Abstract
To evaluate the clinical significance of preoperative spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) features and their association with postoperative outcomes in eyes with primary macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). This is a retrospective case series of all consecutive cases undergoing repair of primary macula-off RRD at two tertiary care academic centers between January 2018 to January 2021. Among 406 eyes, baseline visual acuity (β = 0.184, P = .001) and time to surgery (β = 0.009, P = .033) were predictive of postoperative visual acuity at 1-year follow-up after adjusting for age, sex and lens status, as well as presence of preoperative features on OCT such as outer retinal corrugations and height of the retinal detachment. Baseline visual acuity and time to surgical repair are the best predictors of vision outcomes following macula-off RRD repair. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2021;52:S23-S29.].
