Evolution and visual outcomes of outer foveolar lucency after surgery for large idiopathic macular hole

Purpose To explore the evolution of outer foveolar lucency (OFL) after vitrectomy and the correlation between OFL and visual acuity (VA) outcome in eyes with large idiopathic macular hole (IMH). Methods In this retrospective study, 244 eyes of 233 subjects with large IMH (diameter > 400 μm), who...

Zusammenfassung:Purpose To explore the evolution of outer foveolar lucency (OFL) after vitrectomy and the correlation between OFL and visual acuity (VA) outcome in eyes with large idiopathic macular hole (IMH). Methods In this retrospective study, 244 eyes of 233 subjects with large IMH (diameter > 400 μm), who underwent vitrectomy, were included. Preoperative clinical data, postoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) images, and VA at 1-, 4-, and 10-month visits were documented. The prevalence, incidence, and width of OFL and their correlation with postoperative VA were analyzed. Results The prevalence of OFL was 10.4% (24/231) at 1 month and significantly increased to 30.4% (55/181) at 4 months ( P
