To identify risk factors for retinal detachment (RD) after open-globe injury (OGI) and evaluate outcomes of RD repair after OGI.Case-control study.Overall, 769 patients presented with 786 OGIs, which were surgically managed with ≥ 30 days of follow-up. Of the 786 eyes, 223 developed RD, the other 551 served as controls, and RD status of 12 eyes was unknown.A retrospective chart review was performed of all OGIs presented to the University of Michigan between 2000 and 2022. Multivariable regression identified risk factors for RD after OGI and predictors of poor vision after RD repair. Kaplan-Meier analysis estimated time from OGI to RD.Predictors of visual outcome after RD repair after OGI.After OGI, 223 (28.4%) of 786 eyes were diagnosed with RD, with > 73% diagnosed within a month. Predictors of RD include posterior injury (zone II vs. I odds ratio [OR], 1.60 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.04-2.46]; P = 0.0331; zone III vs. I OR, 2.29 [1.53-3.41]; P < 0.0001), vitreous hemorrhage (OR, 2.29 [1.54-3.1]; P < 0.0001), and presenting acuity worse than count fingers (CFs) (OR, 2.65 [1.69 - 4.16]; P < 0.0001). Retinal detachment repair took place in 142 of 223 eyes. The mean logarithm of minimal angle of resolution visual acuity (VA) improved from 2.3 ± 0.8 to 1.7 ± 0.9 after RD repair at 6-month follow-up, with 51.2% of eyes achieving CF or better vision. Single surgery anatomic success rate was 69.7% and final anatomic success was 88%. Predictors of vision worse than CF include history of ocular surgery (OR, 0.32 [0.11-0.94]; P = 0.039), proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR; OR, 0.39 [0.16 - 0.92]; P = 0.032), aphakia (OR, 0.25 [0.08 - 0.77]; P = 0.016), and redetachment (OR, 0.26 [0.1 - 0.63]; P = 0.003).Most RD occur within the first month after OGI. Patients with posterior injuries, vitreous hemorrhage, or poor presenting VA were more likely to develop RD after OGI. Anatomic success was achieved in the majority, as was final VA of CF vision or better. History of ocular surgery, PVR at time of repair, aphakia, and redetachment were risk factors for a poor outcome.The author(s) have no proprietary or commercial interest in any materials discussed in this article.
