Abstract:
Surgical treatments for macular hole and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment are the most common and principle procedures for vitreoretinal specialists.The surgical success rate reached 95.0％ and above for vitrectomy,macular surgeries with ILM peeling,or local/total scleral buckling.However,the postoperative visual function recovery is nowhere near good enough.Specialists must pay more attention to the visual function recovery of those patients.Postoperative macular anatomical and functional rehabilitation for macular hole and scleral buckling procedures need a long period of time.At present,the postoperative visual acuity for macular hole depends on many factors,such as macular hole closure conditions,surgical procedures,microsurgical invasive ways,skills of membrane peeling,usage of dye staining,and tamponade material choice.It also depends on residual subretinal fluid under macular area for patients received scleral buckling.It is important for us to investigate these factors affecting recovery of macular anatomy and function,and thus develop some drugs to improve the macular function recovery.
