Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) significantly impacts patient quality of life (QoL). While surgery improves QoL, long-term outcomes remain a concern, necessitating care pathway optimization.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Retinal Diseases
  • Quality of Life Research

Background:

  • Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a serious ocular condition affecting vision.
  • Patient-reported quality of life (QoL) is a crucial outcome measure in RRD management.
  • Understanding QoL trajectories post-RRD is essential for comprehensive patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize and quantify quality of life (QoL) outcomes in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
  • To evaluate the impact of RRD on QoL across different time points and surgical interventions.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature search was conducted across Medline, Embase, and Scopus databases.
  • Studies reporting QoL outcomes in RRD patients using validated instruments were included.

Regenerative Therapy by Suprachoroidal Cell Autograft in Dry Age-related Macular Degeneration: Preliminary In Vivo Report

Published on: February 12, 2018

  • A random-effects meta-analysis and critical appraisal using Joanna Briggs Institute tools were performed.

    • Main Results:

    • Twenty-four studies involving 1912 participants were analyzed.
    • Preoperative RRD patients exhibited significantly lower QoL than healthy controls.
    • QoL showed improvement at 3 months post-surgery (scleral buckle or pars plana vitrectomy), but remained lower at 6 and 12 months compared to controls.

    Conclusions:

    • Despite surgical advancements, RRD patients face persistent challenges impacting their QoL.
    • Optimizing care pathways and interventions is crucial to enhance QoL outcomes for RRD patients.
    • Further research is needed to address long-term QoL deficits post-RRD surgery.
