Posttraumatic Giant Macular Hole

INTRODUCTION Large macular holes secondary to blunt trauma are sometimes seen in young patients within the spectrum of alterations produced by ocular trauma. METHODS Observational case report. A 32-year-old woman who had received a blunt trauma (a blow from a fist) to her right eye 10 years previously had experienced a decrease in visual acuity ever since. RESULTS Clinical photographs, fluorescein angiography and optic coherent tomography images revealed a very large macular hole of approximately 1,920 μm in diameter. CONCLUSION This case is an uncommonly large variant of a macular hole secondary to blunt trauma in a young patient.
