Abstrakt: | Background and Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in vascular density in the macula after pars plana vitrectomy for idiopathic macular hole (IMD) with macular peeling and flap. Methods: A prospective study of 35 eyes in 34 patients who had undergone standard surgery. Evaluated parameters were best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), central macular thickness (CRT), macular volume (TMV) and vascular density of the superficial and deep capillary plexus. The follow-up period was one year. Results: We divided the total group into two: temporal and circular flap and total group. We compared the values after surgery with the preoperative values. In the total group, BCVA increased from 48.38 to 71.44 letters (P≤0.05). IOP changed from 15.24 to 14.76 mmHg (P>0.05). CRT decreased from 432.27 to 323.64 µm (P≤0.05). TMV changed from 0.26 to 0.25 mm3 (P>0.05). The vascular density of the superficial plexus decreased from 32 to 28% (P≤0.05). The intercapillary space of the superficial plexus increased from 68 to 72% (P≤0.05). The vascular density of the deep plexus increased from 17 to 23%. The intercapillary space of the deep vascular plexus decreased from 83 to 77%. Changes in vascular density and intercapillary space of the deep plexus were statistically significant for certain months after operations (P≤0.05). There were no significant differences between subgroups. Conclusion: The superficial plexus vascular density is almost the same in the temporal flap and in the foveal-sparing flap is decreased, and the deep plexus vascular density increased statistically significantly during the follow-up period after surgery.
