Optic disc pit maculopathy: Covering or filling technique with human amniotic membrane patch to treat the optic disc pit maculopathy?
Our experience seems to support the idea that the dynamic fluctuation of pressure between intra-ocular and intra-cranial spaces can direct the movement of fluid through the anomalous communication created by the ODP. In this perspective, our cases seem to support the idea that the primary goal of any surgery should be to create a permanent barrier to fluid migration through the ODP to the intra-ocular space, and that hAM can be successfully used to fill the OPD and to create that permanent barrier to achieve the resolution of ODP-M.
