About this study

As it is well known, optic disc pit (ODP) is a rare congenital disease which is usually associated with maculopathy (ODP-M) in the form of intraretinal and subretinal fluid accumulation at the macular area leading to visual impairment.

With no definite treatment and absence of guidelines for its management, the invistigators considered their prospective, interventional case series to evaluate the anatomical and functional results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, endolaser photocoagulation and gas tamponade in management of optic disc pit (ODP) maculopathy.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Patients included in this study are those with ODP associated with macular detachment

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria included patients unfit for general anesthesia, those with insufficient clear media to perform the surgery with ILM peeling and those with other ocular diseases that can affect central macular thickness (CMT) and the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
