Abstract

Purpose: To present the outcome of Optic Disc Pit maculopathy (ODPM) managed successfully with an inverted Internal Limiting Membrane (ILM) flap over the optic disc. A narrative review of ODPM pathogenesis and surgical management techniques are also provided. Case Report: This prospective interventional case series included three eyes of three adult patients (25–39 years old) with unilateral ODPM and a mean duration of unilaterally decreased visual acuity of 7. 33 ± 2. 40 months (4–12 months). The pars plana vitrectomy with posterior vitreous detachment induction was performed on eyes, followed by an inverted ILM Flap insertion over the optic disc and gas tamponade. Patients were followed for 7–16 weeks postoperatively,best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved dramatically in one patient from 2/200 to 20/25. BCVA in other patients improved two and three lines – to 20/50 and 20/30, respectively. A significant anatomical improvement was achieved in all three eyes, and no complication was detected throughout the follow-up period. Conclusion: Vitrectomy with inverted ILM Flap insertion over the optic disc is safe and can yield favorable anatomical improvement in patients with ODPM.
