Anterior Lens Capsule Transplantation for Acquired Optic Disc Pit Maculopathy.

A patient with acquired optic disc pit (ODP) maculopathy underwent vitrectomy with anterior capsule transplantation to the ODP and gas tamponade. Structural changes were evaluated by enhanced depth imaging optical coherence (OCT) tomography. During vitrectomy, the eye was confirmed to have preexisting posterior vitreous detachment. Postoperative OCT showed complete closure of the optic pit resulting in rapid absorption of subretinal fluid. The authors' observations suggest that the anterior capsule is a useful material for achieving optic pit closure. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report describing application of the anterior capsule to the treatment of ODP maculopathy. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2019;50:649-652.].
