LAMELLAR HOLE–ASSOCIATED EPIRETINAL PROLIFERATION

Abstract

Lamellar macular hole with LHEP may demonstrate closure after pars plana vitrectomy with LHEP and internal limiting membrane peeling and gas tamponade. There was considerable improvement in visual acuity. It is possible that LHEP originates from middle retinal layers of the lamellar hole defect because it contains retinal glial cells, specifically Müller cells.
