AB  - PURPOSE: The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate potential 
      predictive factors of long-term postoperative outcomes in patients with 
      macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) treated with pars plana 
      vitrectomy (PPV). METHODS: Participants in this study were 86 patients diagnosed 
      with macula-off RRD, who underwent PPV. Demographic characteristics and 
      preoperative characteristics of RRD were recorded, while best corrected visual 
      acuity (BCVA) was measured preoperatively and at specific postoperative time 
      points (6 weeks and 6, 12, and 24 months). In addition, spectral domain-optical 
      coherence tomography (SD-OCT) characteristics at postoperative week 6 were 
      assessed as potential factors affecting the long-term postoperative visual 
      outcome 24 months after PPV for RRD. RESULTS: Increasing age, duration of RD of 
      more than 1 week, presence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy, increasing central 
      retinal thickness, ellipsoid zone disruption, and external limiting membrane 
      disruption were significantly associated with a worse BVCA. BCVA was not 
      associated with gender, lens status, the location of breaks, the gas tamponade 
      agent used in PPV, the presence of subretinal fluid, and intraretinal fluid. 
      CONCLUSIONS: It is important to determine predictive factors for visual outcomes 
      in order to inform patients about their prognosis and help in the decision-making 
      process for patient management.
