Apparent disappearance of a macular hole associated with development of an epiretinal membrane.
A macular hole in a 78-year-old man participating in a long-term follow-up study changed its biomicroscopic appearance dramatically as a result of changes in an epiretinal membrane. The macular hole became invisible and visual acuity improved from 20/70-2 to 20/30-2+2.
