Abstract

This case series reports on two patients who developed macular holes while on prostaglandin analogs (PGA) therapy. The first case involves a 63-year-old woman with a history of a macular hole of the left eye that had spontaneously closed. After starting PGA therapy for elevated intraocular pressure, cystoid macular edema formed, which resulted in reopening of the macular hole. The second case involves a 64-year-old man with primary open-angle glaucoma, on PGA therapy, with a newly diagnosed small macular hole of the right eye that closed after cessation of the PGA therapy. These cases demonstrate an association between prostaglandin analogs and the formation or reopening of full-thickness macular holes. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina 2024;55:112-115.].
