Internal limiting membrane peeling in macular hole surgery
Since the era when macular hole was considered untreatable, macular hole surgery has come a long way to being one of the most successful surgeries. Internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling has been an essential step of macular hole surgery since the ...

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.
