Retinal detachment and retinoschisis detected by optical coherence tomography in a myopic eye with a macular hole
Abstract
The authors describe a myopic patient with a full-thickness macular hole that was accompanied by both retinal detachment and retinoschisis. A 51-year-old woman presented with a localized retinal elevation of three disc diameters around the macular hole in a myopic eye. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed features of both retinal detachment and retinoschisis. After vitreous surgery and postoperative intraocular gas tamponade, the macular elevation resolved, and separation of the neurosensory retina from the retinal pigment epithelium band disappeared on the OCT images. OCT is a useful tool for examining macular conditions associated with a macular hole in myopic patients.
