The seasonal variation in the incidence of retinal detachment over the period from 1981 to 1987 inclusive was investigated. Highly significant associations were observed between this variation and both sunshine and temperature. Hence, it is suggested that heat or cold may be important additional factors in the development of retinal detachment in an already damaged retina. The occurrence of retinal detachment peaks over the winter months with the highest level being in the month of November, while there is a trough over the summer months.
对1981年至1987年（含）期间视网膜脱离发病率的季节性变化进行了调查。观察到这种变化与日照和温度之间存在高度显著的关联。因此，有人提出，热或冷可能是导致已有损伤的视网膜发生视网膜脱离的重要附加因素。视网膜脱离的发生率在冬季达到峰值，11月份为最高水平，而在夏季则处于低谷。
