Long-term outcomes of macular hole repair with triamcinolone acetonide visualization
Clinical Ophthalmology Apr 21, 2021
Wallsh J, et al. - In the present study, the researchers sought to assess the long-term anatomic and visual outcomes of macular hole (MH) repair utilizing triamcinolone acetonide (TA) visualization of the internal limiting membrane (ILM) treated at a tertiary care retina practice. Retrospective chart review of eyes undergoing MH repair with ILM peel between 2014 and 2020, using TA visualization, followed by gas tamponade and facedown positioning. Long-term outcomes of MH repair with TA for ILM visualization show that it is both safe and effective. Throughout the follow-up, visual acuity improved. Pre-existing glaucoma may progress and recurrence is linked to pathologic myopia and macular edema.
