Analysis of choroidal features to predict surgical prognosis of idiopathic macular hole.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate choroidal features of idiopathic macular hole (IMH) and determine their relationship with surgical outcomes.

Materials and methods

Patients above stage II unilateral IMH who received pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with the internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling were enrolled for the retrospective observational study. Preoperative choriocapillaris perfusion (CCP), central choroidal thickness (CCT), base/minimum diameters (BD/MD) and height (HH) of MH were analyzed by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). At 1, 3 and 6 months after PPV, CCT, central foveal thickness (CFT) and maximum parafoveal thickness (MPT) of closed MH were measured. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was assessed at every visit. The correlations between preoperative cha
