Macular hole following rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair

Retina Service, Wills Eye Hospital, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA.
In each of three phakic eyes, a full-thickness macular hole developed after
scleral buckling surgery for repair of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Presumed predisposing factors included retinal ischemia in the central
fovea due to separation of the retina from the choroidal vascular supply
and vitreomacular traction.
