A representative case in the insertion group. a Baseline fundus photographs reveal a large, full-thickness macular hole (FTMH). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) reveals a large hole of minimum diameter 678.5 μm. The defects in the ELM (white arrowhead) and EZ (yellow arrowhead) measured 1779 μm and 1963.5 μm, respectively. b At 6th month after surgery, hole closure was evident on fundus photography. OCT showed that the fovea was filled with glial tissue (grey arrow) and that the closure was U-shaped. The ELM and EZ defects decreased to 565 and 812 μm, respectively. The BCVA improved from 39 to 48 letters
