简要总结
To report closure rate, Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA), Retinal Sensitivity (RS) and Fixation Stability (FS) of idiopathic Macular Holes (MH) randomized to Cover Group (CG) or Fill Group (FG) of the Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane (ILM) flap surgical procedure.
详细描述
Patients will be randomized (1:1) to receive a vitrectomy with either Cover or Fill ILM flap technique. "Cover" when the ILM flap is everted over the MH gap in a single layer, "Fill" when the ILM is folded into multiple layers within the MH. All patients will undergo BCVA, RS and FS assessment at baseline, 1-month and 3-months after surgery.
Purpose of the study is to report retinal differential sensitivity and fixation stability as well as anatomic and visual outcomes of patients operated on for idiopathic MH and randomly assigned to Fill or Cover Groups.

研究组 & 干预措施
Cover Group (CG)
All patients will undergo a 25G standard 3-port PPV with posterior vitreous detachment induction (if not already present), ILM staining with 0,25 g/l of brilliant blue-G and creation of a 360°ILM flap around the MH rim.
Phakic patients will undergo combined phacoemulsification with IOL implant in-the-bag.
In the Cover Group the ILM flap will be folded as a single layer to bridge tissue dehiscence during air-fluid exchange. All eyes will recive a mixture of 20% sulfur hexafluoride tamponade and will be instructed to position face down for 4 hours a day during the first 3 days post-operative
干预措施: Cover Group (Procedure)
Fill Group (FG)
All patients will undergo a 25G standard 3-port PPV with posterior vitreous detachment induction (if not already present), ILM staining with 0,25 g/l of brilliant blue-G and creation of a 360°ILM flap around the MH rim.
Phakic patients will undergo combined phacoemulsification with IOL implant in-the-bag.
In the Fill Group, multiple layers of ILM will be deliberately folded within the loss of tissue before air-fluid exchange. All eyes will receive a mixture of 20% sulfur hexafluoride tamponade and will be instructed to position face down for 4 hours a day during the first 3 days post-operative
