Long-term optical coherence tomography changes and visual outcomes after vitrectomy for epiretinal proliferation: lamellar holes and full-thickness macular holes
This study demonstrated that surgical intervention led to improved visual and anatomic outcomes in patients with DLMH and FTMH, with a correlation between baseline VA and postoperative visual outcomes. The results suggest that patients with worse preoperative VA experienced the greatest benefit in visual outcome from PPV and ILM peeling. Future studies would look at the timing of when to ideally intervene to improve anatomic and visual outcomes.
