Visual Acuity and Optical Coherence Tomography One Year After ILM-flap Transposition

Vienna Institute for Research in Ocular Surgery41 enrolled

Overview

ILM-flap (internal limiting Membrane-flap) transposition is a new surgical option in repair of macular holes, therefore one year outcomes are needed to better evaluate that method.

Patients that have been scheduled for vitrectomy with ILM-flap transposition, a new surgical option in repair of macular holes, are invited to a follow-up one year after surgery, including optical coherence tomography and visual acuity testing.

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Enrollment

Conditions

Macular Hole

Interventions

optical coherence tomographyDEVICE

optical coherence tomography enables diagosis of macular structures and therefore provides information on macular hole closure.
