Vitrectomy and Scleral Shortening for Macular Hole Retinal Detachment or Myopic Traction Maculopathy

Efficacy of Surgical Treatment of Vitrectomy and Scleral Shortening for Macular Hole Retinal Detachment or Myopic Traction Maculopathy

The medical records of 16 eyes of 16 patients with macular hole retinal detachment or myopic traction maculopathy who received viterctomy including internal limiting membrane peeling and scleral shorting surgery were reviewed. Best-corrected visual acuity, axial length, retinal reattachment and macular hole closure, the shape of staphyloma determined by optical coherence tomography and 3-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging were assessed.

Inclusion Criteria:

• The inclusion criteria were patients who had highly myopic eyes with macular hole retinal detachment to myopic traction maculopathy

Exclusion Criteria:

• The patients with follow-up less than 6 months
