Popis: | The authors successfully treated seven consecutive cases of retinal detachment due to macular holes using vitrectomy, an intravitreal bubble, and postoperative prone positioning. In five cases with preoperative posterior vitreous detachment, laser photocoagulation was applied to the edges of the macular hole after the retina had been flattened. No photocoagulation was used in the two cases without preoperative posterior vitreous detachment. |
