Abstract
- In a retrospective study we reviewed the postoperative incidence of retinal detachment in a consecutive series of 762 eyes operated on with intracapsular cataract extraction and a consecutive series of 1351 eyes operated on with extracapsular cataract extraction. Follow-up time was 2 1/2-4 1/2 years in both series. The incidence of retinal detachment was 0.79% after intracapsular cataract extraction and 0.44% after extracapsular cataract extraction. The difference was not statistically significant. Age below 70 years was not statistically significantly correlated to retinal detachment.
