Purpose: To examine incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of cataract surgery after plaque brachytherapy for posterior uveal melanoma. Design: Retrospective interventional cohort study contrasted with general population data. Methods: All patients treated with plaque brachytherapy for a posterior uveal melanoma at Sweden's national referral center between 2010 and 2022 were included (n = 933). These patients were cross-referenced with data from the Swedish National Cataract Register. Competing risk incidences and outcomes of cataract surgery were compared with a random sample of 1000 individuals from the general population. Results: The 12-year incidence of cataract surgery after plaque brachytherapy was 27 % (95 % CI 23–31 %), which markedly exceeded the incidence of 16 % in the general population (95 % CI 13–18 %, Gray's P |
