Intraoperative optical coherence tomography-assisted displacement of prepapillary membrane in eyes with optic disc pit maculopathy
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology Jan 21, 2021
Inoue M, et al. - In the present study, the researchers sought to determine the effectiveness of displacing a prepapillary membrane during vitrectomy assisted by intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) to treat eyes with optic disc pit maculopathy. Pars plana vitrectomy was conducted with 27-gauge instruments on 4 eyes of 4 consecutive patients for optic disc pit maculopathy with retinoschisis and foveal detachment. At the edge of the optic disc pit, intraoperative OCT can detect intraretinal clefts, and the OCT images are helpful in directing the pre-papillary membrane peeling and positioning to achieve anatomical and visual recovery.
