To evaluate the anatomical and functional results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, endolaser photocoagulation and gas tamponade in management of optic disc pit (ODP) maculopathy.
As it is well known, optic disc pit (ODP) is a rare congenital disease which is usually associated with maculopathy (ODP-M) in the form of intraretinal and subretinal fluid accumulation at the macular area leading to visual impairment. With no definite treatment and absence of guidelines for its management, the invistigators considered their prospective, interventional case series to evaluate the anatomical and functional results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, endolaser photocoagulation and gas tamponade in management of optic disc pit (ODP) maculopathy.
