Article Synopsis
- Cataract surgery is the most common surgery done to help people see better, but it can sometimes lead to a serious problem called retinal detachment (RD), which can harm eyesight.
- A big study looked at over 5 million patients and found that about 37,000 of them experienced RD after surgery, which is about 0.66 cases for every 100 patients.
- The study also showed that men are more likely to get RD after cataract surgery than women.
