A pilot study on vitrectomy combined with scleral shortening for eyes with myopic macular retinoschisis-2y follow-up results.

Aim: To evaluate the effect of vitrectomy combined with scleral shortening for eyes with myopic macular retinoschisis.

Methods: Thirty-seven patients with myopic macular retinoschisis who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with scleral shortening were reviewed. Axial length (AL), the height of macular retinoschisis, the height of retinal detachment if existed, the diameter of macular hole if existed and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were obtained.
