Evaluation of the upper internal limiting membrane flap technique for surgical closure of medium and large macular holes [PDF]
Background Full-thickness macular hole can cause central vision loss, and outcomes depend on hole size and surgical technique. Inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flaps were developed to improve closure in larger defects.

Influence of internal limiting membrane peeling during idiopathic epiretinal membrane removal: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
In epiretinal membrane (ERM) surgery, the influence of internal limiting membrane (ILM) integrity after ERM removal is underexplored. This study investigated outcomes of idiopathic ERM surgery based on ILM condition following ERM removal and intentional ...

Vitrectomy with Fovea Sparing Internal Limiting Membrane Peeling versus Total Internal Limiting Membrane Peeling for Myopic Traction Maculopathy [PDF]
Background: Myopic traction maculopathy [MTM] complicating high myopia is a spectrum of diseases involving damage of the macula resulting from traction leading to inner or outer retinoschisis, macular detachment, lamellar macular hole, full-thickness ...
