Fundus Autofluorescence After Macular Hole Surgery

Makoto Inoue27 enrolled

Overview

Funds autofluorescence (FAF) indicates hyper fluorescence at the macular hole in the patients with macular hole. Investigators investigate the association between FAF and visual acuity, recovery of foveal microstructure, and FAF in surgically closed macular holes.

Ultrawide angle FAF images were taken in 27 eyes before and after macular hole surgery and compared with swept source optical coherence tomographic (SS-OCT) images.
