READING ABILITY AND RETINAL SENSITIVITY AFTER SURGERY FOR MACULAR HOLE AND MACULAR PUCKER

Abstract

The improvement found for visual acuity after vitrectomy for macular hole and pucker also regards retinal sensitivity and reading ability for up to 12 months. This is reassuring concerning the benefits for the patients, and this shows that visual acuity is a valid functional measure for investigating the efficacy of macular surgery.
