a-e. Case 2. OCT image of the right eye demonstrated a stage 1 macular hole or cyst with focal attachment of the hyaloid to the fovea. The yellow arrow designates a discontinuity of the outer fovea (yellow arrow) (Figure 2a). OCT, performed 3 weeks later, revealed avulsion of the inner portion of the foveal cyst with a break in the ILM and progression of the macula hole to a full thickness stage 2 hole with overlying operculum (Figure 2b). Further enlargement of the hole was documented one month (Figure 2c) and two months later (Figure 2d) without evidence of traction. Post-operative OCT revealed closure of the macular hole with restoration of normal foveal contour (Figure 2e). OCTs were performed using OCT 2000, (Humphrey Instruments, San Leandro, CA)
