Lamellar Macular Hole

Özet

The lamellar macular hole (LMH) was fi rst described as “partial-thickness injury in neurosensory retina”. However, LMH cases are notconsidered as an uniform clinical and pathological entity now by advancing retinal imaging techniques and since its fi rst description, itstreatment has been evolved to use different surgical approaches following observation of 2 distinct clinical types of tractional and degenerativeLMH with variations in clinical course and prognosis, responses to surgical treatment and identifi cation of different surgical protocols. In thisreview, defi nitions, classifi cation and up-to-date treatments in LMH will be discussed.
