Unilateral double optic nerve head pits with foveo-schisis detachment treated by modified internal limiting membrane peeling technique.

Abstract

A 44-year-old female with a vision of 10/200 in the right eye had double pits in the temporal segment of the optic disc with serous macular detachment. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) confirmed serous retinal detachment, an outer layer hole, and double optic disc pits. The patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy with modified ILM flap surgery involving fovea-sparing internal limiting membrane peeling (FSIP) technique with inverted ILM flap tucking with gas tamponade. Post surgery, the communications between perineural and intraretinal spaces were obliterated with flaps of ILM covering the pits, with reduced serous macular detachment and BCVA of 20/120. FSIP with inverted internal limiting membrane flap tuck can be an effective technique to manage rare cases of double ODP-M.
