In-depth analysis of risk factors for pseudophakic retinal detachments and retinal breaks.

Posterior capsular rupture, young patient age, male gender and high myopia were risk factors for PRD, but diabetes mellitus was associated with a lower risk. PCR had the strongest association with PRD, regardless of the need for perioperative vitrectomy due to vitreous loss. Time to PRD was reduced in patients with PCR and vitrectomy compared with PCR without the need for vitrectomy or uneventful surgery.
