Anatomical and functional outcome of surgical correction of optic disc pit maculopathy using autologous scleral patch graft: a long-term retrospective analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Optic disc pit (ODP) is a rare congenital anomaly of optic nerve head and is associated with maculopathy. Scleral patch graft (SPG) as a therapeutic option is recently advocated.

Methods

This is a retrospective analysis of 54 patients with ODP maculopathy who were followed up for 12 months post-operatively. The parameters assessed included best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in LogMAR chart and central macular thickness (CMT) at baseline and at 1-, 3- and 12-months post-surgery.

Results

The mean age of presentation was 36.36 ± 15.69 years [Median 36, Interquartile range (IQR) 14.75]. 51.85% were female. 53.7% were operated in left eye. The average period of follow-up was 15.37 ± 2.34 months after surgery. The mean presenting BCVA in LogMAR chart was 0.66 ±
