About

Full-thickness macular Hole associated with macular detachment is a one of the maculopathies of high myopia. There is controversy in the primary treatment for this situation. This study will compare the effects of macular buckling versus vitrectomy in a cohort of highly myopic eyes with this situation.

Full description

A randomized, open label, single center study comparing the efficacy of macular muckle + gas injection versus internal limiting membrane peeling + gas tamponade on full-thickness macular hole associated with macular detachment in eyes with high myopia.

  • a history of vitrectomy or scleral buckling
  • intraocular active hemorrhage or inflammation
