Comparisons of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness changes after macular hole surgery

Abstract

This study showed no significant decrease in retinal nerve fiber layer thickness measurements after macular holes surgery, regardless of age or sex.

Different Surgical Techniques on Internal Limiting Membrane For The Treatment of Idiopathic Macular Hole

“…Hipoozmolar solüsyonlar kullanılmalı, %5'lik glukoz çözeltisi distile suya tercih edilmelidir. [42] İSY toksisitesi nedeniyle tripan mavisi, brillant mavisi G, TA ve asid viole 17 İSY'nin yerini almıştır. [43] Tripan mavisi İLM'ye spesifik değildir, iç retinal yüzeyi boyar ve boyanmış yüzeyle altındaki boyanmayan katmanlar arasında kontrast yaratır.…”

“… 11 Some studies have reported RNFL thickening after vitrectomy, either as a result of direct mechanical traction on the papillomacular bundle, resulting in tenting and elevation of nerve fibers, 12 or edema of the inner-retinal layers in the first postoperative week. 13 Others have reported thinning, with possible mechanisms including NFL dehydration during fluid–air exchange, 14 dye-related toxicity, mechanical injury, or increased intraocular pressure (IOP). 15 There are several technologies that have been used for measuring the RNFL, these include scanning laser polarimetry, confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, and ocular coherence tomography (OCT).…”
