Microperimetry and optical coherence tomography in a case of traumatic macular hole and associated macular detachment with spontaneous resolution

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
The association of macular detachment with posttraumatic macular hole is a known but rare occurrence. Spontaneously occurring resolution of the detachment and closure of the macular hole has been reported only once in the literature.

Effect of the macular shape on hole findings in idiopathic macular hole differs depending on the stage of the macular hole

Scientific Reports, 2023
AbstractThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between macular shape and idiopathic macular hole (MH) findings using an objective method. We present retrospective observational case series on patients with MH. The shape of the macular area was quantified using quadratic equations, and the ocular shape (OS) index was calculated.

Macular hole size as a prognostic factor in macular hole surgery [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2002
In 1991 there was a series of successful closures of a macular hole after vitrectomy and membrane peeling. Today this technique has become a standard procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of optical coherence tomography in diagnosing and staging, as well as in predicting, the functional and anatomical outcome after macular hole ...

Surgical outcomes of inverted internal limiting membrane flap technique for large macular hole

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
We are presenting the initial results of inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap technique for large macular hole. Five eyes of five patients with large diameter macular hole (>700 μm) were selected.
