“…5 Surgical outcomes included the MH closure rate (closed MHs were categorized into two patterns by SD-OCT: Type 1 was MH closed without a neurosensory retinal defect at the fovea and Type 2 was MH closed with a foveal neurosensory retinal defect at the fovea) 6 and retinal reattachment rate. Postoperative complications included excessive gliosis 7 and endophthalmitis. The correlation among parameters was as-sessed using linear regression.…”

Purpose: To evaluate the surgical anatomical and functional results of “viscoelastic agent pool” technique-assisted stability of inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap in macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD). Methods: The innovative surgical technique was carried out on 10 patients with MHRD. The primary outcomes included best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) after surgery, rate of closure of MH, retinal reattachment, and occurrence of complications. Results: The mean age of the individuals was 67.70±8.75 (range, 55–84) years; mean axial length, 29.34±1.53 (range, 27.10–30.93) mm; mean corrected MH diameter, 685.30± 345.65 (range, 172–1325) μm; and average follow-up period, 6.01±1.71 (range, 3.10–8.4) months. In six eyes (60%), the postoperative BCVA showed improvement. All patients had MH closure, and the retinal reattachment rate was 100%. No postoperative complications were noted. Conclusions: The "Viscoelastic agent pool" technique, an innovative surgical approach designed to enhance the stability of the ILM flap, serves as an effective adjunctive procedure for the inverted ILM flap technique. It presents a viable option for patients with MHRD.
