Long-term surgical outcome of high myopic full-thickness macular hole without retinoschisis

Hole closure rate after vitrectomy in highly myopic patients with FTMH without retinoschisis was high. However, the postoperative development of foveal atrophy hindered vision improvement. Posterior staphyloma, greater minimal hole diameter, and longer axial length were predictive of poor prognosis.

Abstract

Hole closure rate after vitrectomy in highly myopic patients with FTMH without retinoschisis was high. However, the postoperative development of foveal atrophy hindered vision improvement. Posterior staphyloma, greater minimal hole diameter, and longer axial length were predictive of poor prognosis.
