Macular hole surgery in a patient with a stage 2 macular hole. The internal limiting membrane is peeled. A short acting gas was used (sulfur hexafluoride) and vision was 20/50 1 week after surgery. This surgery was done 1 month ago. Vision at 1 month visit was 20/40. ]]> http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/vitrectomy-with-internal-limiting-membrane-peel-for-idiopathic-macular-hole/feed/ 1 Macular Pucker Surgery 1 http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/macular-pucker-surgery-1/ http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/macular-pucker-surgery-1/#comments Sun, 16 Oct 2011 14:34:02 +0000 Admin http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/macular-pucker-surgery-1/
Macular pucker surgery using 25 gauge small incision “no stitch” system. This 68 year old man has had decreasing vision for 1 year from a macular pucker. He also is diabetic and has had cataract surgery. Because of his macular edema he was treated over the year with steroids, but his viision did not improve. The visual acuity is 20/100. Usually vision is worse for 2 to 4 weeks after macular pucker surgery. Thanks to the small incision system and also because of this patients tense macular pucker, his vision started to improve the very first day after surgery. ]]> http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/macular-pucker-surgery-1/feed/ 7 Macular hole surgery by Dr Ajay Sharma http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/macular-hole-surgery-by-dr-ajay-sharma/ http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/macular-hole-surgery-by-dr-ajay-sharma/#comments Wed, 22 Jun 2011 07:35:41 +0000 Admin

83 year old man had macular hole surgery in 1996 and his visual acuity improved to 20/50. 2 months prior to this video he had a Baerveldt Implant in his left eye and his intraocular pressure was low (less than 6). He developed a choroidal hemorrhage 3 weeks prior to this video. By the time of the surgery, the blood had liquified and drained easily. The video is sped up to double speed during the drainage of the choroidal hemorrhage parts. The patient regained 20/100 vision at the time I am posting this which is one month post-operatively. Even thought the drainage tube was ligated, his intraocular pressure was still low at about 6 mmHg after this surgery. ]]> http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/choroidal-hemorrhage-drainage-and-ligation-of-baerveldt-implant-tube-hd/feed/ 0 Brilliant Rockin’ Blue http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/brilliant-rockin-blue/ http://MacularHoleSurgery.org/blog/brilliant-rockin-blue/#comments Sun, 22 May 2011 16:56:46 +0000 Admin
Historically, several techniques have been used to peel the internal limiting membrane (ILM): Plain visualization, trypan blue, indocyanin green, and even blood. Brilliant blue, however, makes this procedure a lot easier, whether it is for routine macular hole surgery, diabetic patients, and even in detached retina.
