Spontaneous Closure of a Full-Thickness Stage 2 Idiopathic Macular Hole without Posterior Vitreous Detachment

OBJECTIVE: We report a 50-year-old female patient with a stage 2 idiopathic macular hole that closed spontaneously. METHOD: The case is presented on the basis of an observational case report. RESULTS: The stage 2 idiopathic macular hole closed spontaneously in 6 weeks with a lamellar defect in the o...

description OBJECTIVE: We report a 50-year-old female patient with a stage 2 idiopathic macular hole that closed spontaneously. METHOD: The case is presented on the basis of an observational case report. RESULTS: The stage 2 idiopathic macular hole closed spontaneously in 6 weeks with a lamellar defect in the outer retina due to the formation of the bridging retinal tissue, but without any evidence of the common mechanisms of spontaneous closure such as posterior vitreous detachment or epiretinal membrane formation.
