Abstract

BACKGROUND: Visual recovery after macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) remains limited in many cases, largely due to photoreceptor damage. This study aimed to assess the predictive value of early outer retinal findings on optical coherence tomography (OCT) for visual acuity outcomes.
