Analysis of Retinal Microstructure in Eyes with Dissociated Optic Nerve Fiber Layer (DONFL) Appearance following Idiopathic Macular Hole Surgery: An Optical Coherence Tomography Study

Abstract: (1) Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate morphological changes of the retina in eyes with dissociated optic nerve fiber layer (DONFL) appearance following internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for full-thickness idiopathic macular hole (IMH) on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). (2) Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 39 eyes of 39 patients with type 1 macular hole closure after a vitrectomy with ILM peeling procedure at a six-month minimum postoperative follow-up. The retinal thicknes… Show more

“…The study, however, did not specifically assess metamorphopsia symptoms or fully explore the potential impacts of displacement on visual function. Therefore, it is crucial to note that the traditional procedure of ILM peeling, involving the disruption of Müller cell peduncles, inevitably leads to some retinal damage in the peeled area 33 , 34 . The investigation of the mechanisms that cause damage will help us to understand the potential damage of ILM movement, to a certain extent, and assist surgeons in making more informed decisions regarding the surgical approach and its timing.…”
