“…16 Macular translocation surgeries for myopic choroidal neovascularization and age-related macular degeneration have also been intentionally moved from the foveal area to other locations. [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Thus, the macular retina is movable depending on the circumstances and can function on any retinal pigment epithelium.…”

Purpose To determine whether there is a displacement of the fovea toward the optic disc after successful macular hole (MH) surgery with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling. Methods The medical records of 54 eyes of 53 patients that had undergone pars plana vitrectomy with ILM peeling and gas or air tamponade for an idiopathic MH were evaluated. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) had been performed before and 46 months after the surgery. The preoperative distances between the center of the MH and the optic disc (MH-OD), center of the MH and the bifurcation or crossing of retinal vessels (MH-RV) were measured in the OCT images. In addition, the postoperative distance between the center of the fovea and optic disc (F-OD) and the center of the fovea and the same bifurcation or crossing of retinal vessels (F-RV) were measured in the OCT images. Results The F-OD was 2.67 ± 0.33 disc diameters (DD), which was significantly shorter than that of the MH-OD of 2.77 ± 0.33 DD (Po0.001). The F-RV was also significantly shorter than the MH-RV on the inner nasal area (from 0.85 ± 0.16DD to 0.79 ± 0.15DD; Po0.001), the inner temporal area (from 0.82±0.15DD to 0.77±0.14DD; Po0.001), and outer nasal area (from 1.70 ± 0.31DD to 1.65 ± 0.32DD; Po0.001), but it was significantly longer than the MH-RV in the outer temporal area (from 1.65±0.29DD to 1.68±0.29DD; Po0.001).Conclusion Our results showed that successful closure of a MH by vitrectomy with ILM peeling and gas tamponade leads to a displacement of the center of the macula toward the optic disc.

“…To the best of our knowledge, the current study was the largest case series to date of FMT performed to treat mCNV, as previous reports of the long-term outcomes of FMT for mCNV included fewer cases 19 20. The current retrospective study tracked the visual evolution of BCVA that improved more than three lines but found that it decreased to preoperative levels.…”

“…A few recent studies have reported the long-term results of FMT for series of eyes with CNV that included mostly patients with AMD. The investigators reported poor outcomes after FMT for AMD and relatively better results for mCNV 19 20. These results in patients with mCNV might be explained by the smaller size of the neovascular membranes, a lower rate of recurrence, and the younger patient age in the myopic group; however, the series included only a limited number of eyes with mCNV.…”

Myopia is the most common ocular abnormality. Its high and growing prevalence has contributed to a recent surge in surgical interest in the disorder, since retinal detachment in eyes with high myopia differs from that in emmetropic eyes or eyes with low myopia. The myopic eye, because of its specific anatomy, poses special challenges that need to be overcome to ensure the appropriate use of vitreous substitutes. However, intraocular tamponades have shown great potential for revolutionizing retinal detachment surgery and vitreomacular surgery in general in myopic eyes. We provide an updated review of the clinical use of vitreous substitutes in the myopic eye, paying particular attention to analyzing the ideal function of endotamponade agents and comparing the effects of these agents on the physical and biological properties of the eye.
