Due to the development of population screening and increases in cataract surgery rates, this study aimed to examine trends in the admission rates of PACD among the urban population in China.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This cross-sectional study examined patients who were admitted to a hospital for PACD, and who underwent cataract surgery or LPI operations. The data were obtained from the Yinzhou Regional Health Information Platform (YRHIP) from 2011 to 2021. The annual rates of PACD and APAC admissions, cataract surgery and LPI were analyzed, with the number of cases used as numerators and the annual resident population in Yinzhou district used as denominators.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 2,979 patients with PACD admissions, 1,023 patients with APAC admissions, 53,635 patients who underwent cataract surgery and 16,450 patients who underwent LPI were included. The number of annual admissions for PACD gradually increased from 22 cases (1.6\/100000) in 2011 to 387 cases (30.8\/100000) in 2016, after which it decreased to 232 cases (16.2\/100000) in 2019 and then increased to 505 cases (30.6\/100000) in 2021. The number of cataract surgeries gradually increased from 1728 (127.7\/100000) in 2011 to 7002 (424.9\/100000) in 2021. Similarly, the number of LPI gradually increased from 109 (8.0\/100000) in 2011 to 3704 (224.8\/100000) in 2021.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The admission rates of PACD for the urban population in China have declined in recent years after a long increasing trend in the rates of cataract surgery and LPI. However, it increased rapidly during the COVID-19 epidemic. The national health database should be further utilized to investigate temporal trends in the prevalence of PACD.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2024.1398674","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,5]],"date-time":"2024-06-05T05:22:31Z","timestamp":1717564951000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Trends
