Vitrectomy is one of the crucial therapeutic interventions for non-traumatic and non-diabetic retinal diseases. However, the prognosis of patients undergoing this procedure and the factors affecting prognosis remain to be clarified. The aim of this study was to analyze the prognostic factors of non-traumatic and non-diabetic retinopathy complicated by vitreous hemorrhage. A retrospective study was conducted on 352 patients, including 152 (43.18%) females, who underwent vitrectomy in our hospital from March 2018 to December 2022, divided into Group A (postoperative complications) and Group B (no complications) according to whether complications occurred during postoperative follow-up. General and clinical data of the two groups were collected and compared. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the main factors affecting prognosis. All patients were followed up for 12 months. A total of 87 patients had postoperative complications, accounting for 24.72% (87/352), and were classified as Group A. A total of 265 patients who had no postoperative complications, accounting for 75.28% (265/352), were classified as Group B. There were significant differences in preoperative visual acuity, time of surgical intervention, preoperative fundus condition, stage of retinopathy, preoperative intraocular pressure and age between the two groups (p < 0.05), and these indices were identified as independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients (odds ratio >1). Preoperative visual acuity, time of surgical intervention, preoperative fundus condition, stage of retinopathy, preoperative intraocular pressure and age are all factors affecting the prognosis of patients with non-traumatic and non-diabetic retinopathy while undergoing vitrectomy. Personalized care is required to improve the surgical outcome for these patients.
