Abstract

METHODS: Patient presenting with chronic full thickness macular hole (FTMH) were injected with sub retinal fluid with 41G needle at 3 para foveal areas after conventional ILM peeling. It was followed by fluid air exchange and gas tamponade.
Conclusion: Large chronic FTMH may persist even after release of epiretinal traction. Sub retinal fluid application helps release flexible retina from RPE to achieve a relocation at the central fovea facilitating an anatomical closure of the macular hole.
