The analysis of age related factors of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment

Abstract

Objective To approach the invasion reasons, clinical features and the therapeutic efficacy in teenage, middle-aged and older age-group, Methods To retrospectively analyze the invasion reasons, clinical features and the therapeutic efficacy differences in the cases of 29 juvenile RRD, 53 middle-aged RRD and 35 senile RRD patients treated in our hospital during August 2007 to August 2008. Results The comparing of the related factors between the teenager group and the old aged-group had the obvious difference in the inception rate of the high myopia and the ocular injury; the comparing of the inception rate of high myopia between the teenager group and the middle age group had no obvious difference; the comparing of the inception rate of the ocular injury between the teenager group and the middle age group had the obvious difference. The inception rate of the great hole and the ora serrata mutilation of the teenager group and the middle age group was higher than the old aged-group obviously; the inception rate of the macular hole of the old age group was higher than the teenager group and the middle age group; the comparing of weather the extent of the retinal detachmeat involving the macular area showed that the teenager group was the lowest. There was no obvious difference among the three groups in the comparing of the postoperative recovery condition. Conclusions There is no obvious difference in the therapeutic efficacy among the three groups. But the comparing of the clinical feature has the obvious differences.
