摘要：To report closure rate, Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA), Retinal Sensitivity (RS) and Fixation Stability (FS) of idiopathic Macular Holes (MH) randomized to Cover Group (CG) or Fill Group (FG) of the Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane (ILM) flap surgical procedure. Twenty-eight patients were randomized (1:1) to receive a vitrectomy with either Cover or Fill ILM flap technique. All patients underwent BCVA, RS and FS assessment at baseline, 1-month and 3-months after surgery. MH closed in all patients. BCVA rose from 20/100 (baseline) to 20/33 (1-month) in both groups, to 20/28 in CG versus 20/33 in FG (3-months) (p < 0.05). The central 4° RS rose from 11.5 and 12 dB to 19 and 19.5 dB (1-month) and to 22 and 20 dB (3-months), respectively, in CG and FG (p < 0.001). The central 10° RS rose from 11 and 15 dB to 22 and 20 dB (1-month) and to 23 and 20 dB (3-months), respectively, in CG and FG (p < 0.001). FS increased significantly more in CG. CG improved significantly more than FG in terms of BCVA, RS and FS. The average MH diameter was relatively small (397 µm); larger MHs may behave differently.
