Sex-specific age threshold for increased risk of retinal vein occlusion in Koreans

RVO incidence was higher in females, and increased more rapidly with age. The incidence of RVO more than doubled after 50 years of age for both sexes after adjusting for confounding factors. Females had an older age cut-off for RVO than males. However, the clinical impact of the use of sex-specific age cut-offs for RVO would benefit from additional validation from further studies.
