CI = confidence interval; CPT = Current Procedural Terminology; IR = incidence rate; OR = odds ratio; (Ref) = reference; RRD = rhegmatogenous retinal detachment; RT = retinal tear.

Bold OR (95% CI) values indicate statistical significance (P < 0.05).

Univariable ORs are based on coefficients from a logistic regression model of the single variable.

Multivariable ORs are based on coefficients from a multivariable logistic regression model containing all of the demographic factors (age at cataract surgery, sex, race, ethnicity, indicator for the presence of bilateral cataract surgeries), comorbidities (lattice degeneration, high myopia, posterior vitreous detachment), and factors associated with cataract surgery complexity (hypermature cataract, pseudoexfoliation, floppy iris syndrome, and complex cataract surgery CPT code). Analyses adjusted for intereye correlation yielded similar results.
