The risk factors of the progression of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment on patients with the fourteen-day quarantine in the early period of COVID-19 outbreak
BMC Ophthalmology May 19, 2021
Zhao M, Li J, She H, et al. - In this retrospective case series, researchers sought to examine the progression of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and its related risk factors after a 14-day quarantine during the early period of the COVID-19 outbreak. From February 16, 2020, to April 30, 2020, the medical history of all consecutive patients with RRD who received surgical care at Beijing Tongren Hospital’s retina service, were reviewed retrospectively. Participants in the study were 79 patients (79 eyes). RRD progression risk factors in the sample during the COVID-19 outbreak included a combination of choroidal detachment and retinal breaks posterior to the equator. RRD patients with these signs should have their surgeries scheduled as soon as possible by ophthalmologists.
