We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the outcome of macular hole (MH) treatment in eyes with uveitis.We searched PubMed and Embase databases from inception through August 15, 2021.We included eyes with MHs secondary to uveitis that were managed medically or underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). We excluded eyes with idiopathic MH and those secondary to causes other than uveitis.Of 27 articles, we identified 86 eyes with MH secondary to uveitis that received either conservative medical treatment alone or PPV with adequate follow-up. The mean (± SD) age of patients included in this review was 46.6 (± 16.8) years; 60.5% were males. The most common etiology of uveitis was Behçet's disease (34.6%) and toxoplasmosis (19.7%). The most common anatomical location of uveitis was posterior (59.3%) followed by panuveitis (35.2%). The mean (± SD) baseline LogMAR vision was 1.1 (± 0.5). Conservative medical treatment was employed in 34.9%, while PPV was performed in 65.1% of eyes. Overall, the mean (SD) LogMAR vision improved from 1.1 (± 0.5) at baseline to 0.7 (± 0.5) after treatment. Inflammation-related MHs were closed in 40% of eyes after conservative therapy and in 87.5% of eyes after PPV. Visual improvement occurred in most eyes (83.9%) that had successful closure of their MH.Visual improvement occurs in most eyes that had successful closure of their inflammation-related MH. Conservative medical control of uveitis may lead to closure of inflammation-related MHs and is an important step prior to surgery, if required. Surgical intervention for inflammation-related MHs is associated with good functional and anatomical results. |
