“…Similar retinal reattachment rates using MB were reported in two other series [95,96]. A relatively simple procedure using a T-shaped buckle for the treatment of a myopic retinal detachment associated with MH or MR has been described recently [97]. This case series comprised previous vitrectomy failures and eyes with severe chorioretinal atrophy.…”

This updated clinical perspective demonstrates that CNV and vitreomacular disorders in pathological myopia are treatable conditions. There are numerous medical and surgical interventions that have significantly improved the outcome of myopic maculopathy and several others currently under investigation. Nonetheless, as technology advances, further well-designed studies are necessary to establish a uniform evidence-based approach for classification and treatment.

“…4,9 Macular indentation can be achieved through various techniques and devices, but correct and safe positioning of the exoplant is still an issue. 1,2,5,6,8,10 To enhance visualization and to avoid excessive manipulation, we suggest a new amendment to the use of the Ando plombe during its surgical placement. AsSiametal 7 reported,knowingtheanatomicaltopographyofthe posterior aspect of the globe is crucial to making a proper indentation in the macular area.…”

“…Reshaping and providing support to the posterior scleral wall by means of macular buckling (MB) has the advantage of releasing both the anteroposterior traction caused by the posterior staphyloma and the tangential traction caused by the vitreous cortex 13–15. We report our experience using a recently proposed T-shaped MB by Devin et al 16 combined or not with PPV for de novo cases or following a previous failed surgical approach in patients affected by MH with MS, and MH with or without MD. The primary goal was to evaluate the rate of complete closure of the MH and reattachment of the retina.…”
