Abstract
Objective To observe the effect of inner limiting membrane packing for the treatment of macular hole retinal detachment in high myopia. Methods The clinical data of 22 eyes of 22 high myopia patients with macular hole retinal detachment from July 2014 to June 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent 23 G vitrectomy, inner limiting membrane packing and vitreous tamponade with silicone oil in 6 eyes, with C3F8 or air in 16 eyes. The macular hole closure rate and retinal anatomical reattachment rate were observed for 3 months after the surgery. Results In 1 case the inner limiting membrane was not successfully removed and the inner limiting membrane was not successfully packed in 1 case. The macular hole closed and the retina reattached in 19 eyes, and the curative rate was 86.3% (19/22). There were 3 cases accounting for 13.64% (3/22) whose retinas were reattached but the macular holes were not closed. Conclusion Inner limiting membrane packing for the treatment of macular hole retinal detachment in high myopia is effective and most of the eyes don't need to fill with silicone oil. Key words: High myopia; Macular hole; Retinal detachment; Packing, inner limiting membrane
