متن کاملMacular hole size as a prognostic factor in macular hole surgery.
BACKGROUND/AIM In 1991 there was a series of successful closures of a macular hole after vitrectomy and membrane peeling. Today this technique has become a standard procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of optical coherence tomography in diagnosing and staging, as well as in predicting, the functional and anatomical outcome after macular hole surgery. METHOD In a prospecti...
