- Authors
Rishi, Ekta; Singh, Pallavi
- Abstract
The management of macular hole (MH) has come a long way from the time Kelly and Wendel introduced their pioneer work in 1991.[[1]] Pars plana vitrectomy with posterior vitreous detachment induction with or without internal limiting peeling (ILM) along with gas tamponade and post-op positioning is the most widespread surgical technique showing consistent results anatomically as well as functionally. The MH (MH) closure rate has been reported to be 85-90% after primary surgery.[[2]] Persistent, large, or recurrent MH is a surgical challenge.
