Day-hospital interventions for all eye diseases, including cataract

Table. Latest available metrics on day-hospital interventions in the EU countries.

Eurostat and national agencies use 'Day case' term to describe day-hospital interventions, and define it as 'day care comprises medical and paramedical services (episode of care) delivered to patients who are formally admitted for diagnosis, treatment or other types of health care with the intention of discharging the patient on the same day. An episode of care for a patient who is admitted as a day-care patient and subsequently stays overnight is classified as an overnight stay or other in-patient case.'
Considering day-hospital interventions due to diseases of the eye and adnexa (ICD-10 codes H00-H59), Data were absent for one country (Bulgaria). Denmark, Luxembourg, United Kingdom and Greece has reported information about day-hospital interventions more than 3 years ago, while 20 countries have data about day-hospital interventions for the year 2019 and after.
Rate of day-hospital interventions per 100,000 population demonstrated 498-fold difference, being lowest in Czechia and highest in Austria (3.3 and 1645.1, respectively). Slovakia, Denmark, Slovenia, Sweden, Germany and Czechia had rate less than 100, another 11 countries had rate between 100 and 1000, while Austria, Portugal, France, Spain, Estonia, Belgium, United Kingdom, Ireland, Croatia and Finland had rates greater than 1000 day-hospital interventions per 100,000 population.

Regarding day-hospital interventions due to cataract (ICD-10 codes H25, H26, H28), data were absent for two countries (Bulgaria, Estonia). Denmark, Luxembourg, United Kingdom and Greece has reported information about day-hospital interventions more than 3 years ago, while 20 countries have data about day-hospital interventions for the year 2019 and after.
Rate of day-hospital interventions per 100,000 population demonstrated 2156-fold difference, being lowest in Sweden and highest in France (0.6 and 1294, respectively). Italy, Slovakia, Germany, Czechia, Denmark, Slovenia and Sweden had rate less than 100, another 13 countries had rate between 100 and 800, while France, Austria, Belgium, Spain, Latvia and Finland had rates greater than 800 day-hospital interventions per 100,000 population.
