Purpose: To discuss a case of a macular hole formation after vitrectomy for myopic retinoschisis with foveal detachment and spontaneous closure, during long-term follow-up.
Methods: Case report.
Results: A 71-year-old man with myopic retinoschisis with foveal detachment had a vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling combined with cataract surgery in the left eye. The preoperative best-corrected visual acuity was 8/20, and the axial length was 27.11 mm. A macular hole with foveal detachment was observed 1 month after surgery. However, the macular hole closed spontaneously with foveal detachment at 4 months of follow-up. Foveal detachment resolved, and the best-corrected visual acuity improved to 20/20 at nine months of follow-up.
Conclusion: This case suggests that the macular hole formed after vitrectomy for myopic retinoschisis with foveal detachment with internal limiting membrane peeling can close spontaneously.

Preretinal abnormal tissue before and after pars plana vitrectomy in macula-on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: a multimodal imaging study.
Br J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department of Neurosciences, Imaging and Clinical Sciences, University "G. d'Annunzio" Chieti-Pescara, Chieti, Italy.
Purpose: To quantitatively explore preretinal abnormal tissue (PAT) in macula-on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) before and after surgery.
Methods: In this case-series study, PAT was detected by en-face optical coherence tomography images with custom slabs in eyes that underwent pars plana vitrectomy and SF6 for macula-on RRD.Main outcome measures were PAT area at baseline, 3-month and 6-month follow-up, and its relative change.
Preliminary efficacy and safety results of a new macular buckle model (NPB) in myopic traction maculopathy.
Eur J Ophthalmol

Eyecare Clinic, Brescia, Italy.
Purpose: To describe the efficacy and safety outcomes of NPB macular buckle (MB) in myopic traction maculopathy (MTM).
Methods: A monocentric, prospective cohort study of the naïve eyes who underwent MB surgery, alone or combined with vitrectomy (PPV) for MTM, using the new NPB buckle, between December 2022 and June 2024. The anatomical results, postoperative complications, and MB ease of use were analyzed as the main outcomes.

Eye Institute and Department of Ophthalmology, Eye and Ear Nose, Throat Hospital of Fudan University, 83 Fen Yang Road, Shanghai, 200031, China.
Background: To investigate the anatomical and functional outcomes of macular hole-associated retinal detachment (MHRD) after vitrectomy using the inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap technique with autologous blood clot (ABC).
Methods: This retrospective observational study included 80 eyes with MHRD that underwent vitrectomy with ILM flap without (46 eyes) or with ABC (34 eyes). Fundus photography and optical coherence tomography were evaluated.
Influence of foveal glial tissue after macular hole surgery on outer retinal restoration and visual acuity.

Division of Ophthalmology, Department of Visual Sciences, Nihon University School of Medicine, Nihon, Japan.
Purpose: To investigate the impact of foveal glial tissue on the anatomical and functional results after macular hole (MH) surgery.
Methods: This study included 141 consecutive eyes that underwent successful vitrectomy for full-thickness MH between January 2015 and December 2022. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the length of outer retinal defects were evaluated preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively.

Introduction And Importance: Sturge Weber Syndrome (SWS) is a congenital neurocutaneous disorder that affects several organs. Abnormal ocular findings are typically on the same side as the SWS. These changes can affect various parts of the eye, including the eyelid, front chamber, cornea, choroid, and retina.
