To evaluate the functional and anatomical outcomes for autologous retinal autograft with Finesse™ Flex Loop for failed macular holes.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the functional and anatomical outcomes for autologous retinal autograft with Finesse™ Flex Loop for failed macular holes.

Methods

This is a retrospective study analyzing medical records of consecutive patients with refractory macular hole (at least 1 prior surgery) and eyes with retinal detachment with coexisting macular holes (MH). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the macula was performed before and after surgery. The primary study outcome evaluated were the functional and anatomic macular hole closure, and secondary outcomes were improvement in visual acuity and restoration of the outer retinal bands, external limiting membrane, and ellipsoid zone in eyes with acquisition of autologous retinal transplant using Finesse Loop.
