Filter by:Foveal sparing internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling with ILM flap transposition over the macular hole combines the benefits of foveal sparing ILM peeling with ILM flap techniques. Aim of this study is to retrospectively examine the rate of postsurgical macular hole closure, development of central atrophy in the foveal area, and improvement of best corrected distant visual acuity in a group of patients having undergone foveal sparing ILM peeling with ILM flap transposition for macular hole repair.
Prospective study evaluating the role of inflammasomes in cell death in retinal detachment, full thickness macular hole, and epiretinal membrane. The investigators are collecting vitreous and subretinal fluid samples from patients with these conditions and evaluating activity of the inflammasome pathway with established assays.
This is a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) to investigate the effect of postoperative face-down positioning on the outcome of macular hole surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of postoperative posturing on the outcome of macular hole surgery. Current practice is divided; some individuals are advised to posture face-down for 10 days and others are advised that posturing is unnecessary. By evaluating the effect of posturing in a prospective randomised controlled trial the investigators hope to determine best practice, enabling surgeons and patients to make informed decisions regarding postoperative management.
