Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane Flap Technique for Macular Hole Retinal Detachment in Highly Myopic Eyes

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Macular Hole Retinal Detachment
Registration Number
NCT02896972
Lead Sponsor
Kyorin University
Brief Summary

To evaluate efficacy of vitrectomy with inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap technique for macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) in highly myopic eyes, and to demonstrate postoperative clinical course of MHRD after inverted ILM flap technique using swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT)

Detailed Description

Macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) threatens a certain number of highly myopic patients for irreversible visual dysfunction, and mostly requires immediate surgical intervention. The aim of they study is to evaluate efficacy of vitrectomy with inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap technique for MHRD in highly myopic eyes, and to demonstrate postoperative clinical course of MHRD after inverted ILM flap technique using swept-source optical coherence tomography.
