Functional and structural assessment of lamellar macular holes.

Aim: The purpose of the present work was to evaluate the macular sensitivity of patients with lamellar macular hole (LMH) by means of microperimetry, and to explore the relationships between macular function, LMH anatomical characteristics and vitreous status.

Methods: A total of 39 eyes from 37 patients with a diagnosis of LMH and 20 age-matched control subjects were enrolled. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmological examination including visual acuity testing (logMAR) and MP1 microperimetry.

Bietti crystalline dystrophy: a morpho-functional evaluation.

We report the clinical findings and macular function of a patient with Bietti crystalline dystrophy. A 39-year-old woman reported visual loss in both eyes and nyctalopia. A complete ophthalmological evaluation, retromode imaging, SD-OCT acquisition, MP1 microperimetry, and multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) were performed.

Macular function after PDT in myopic maculopathy: psychophysical and electrophysiological evaluation.

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on macular function in myopic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV).

Methods: Fourteen eyes of 14 patients (mean age, 48.1 +/- 13.

Development of macular pseudoholes: a 36-month period of follow-up.

Purpose: To assess the changes in visual acuity and macular sensitivity and the possible evolution into a full-thickness macular hole in patients with macular pseudoholes during a 3-year follow-up period.

Methods: Twenty-seven eyes (mean age, 61.0 +/- 8.
