title: [The surgical management of macular hole].
abstract: The authors evaluate results of the vitrectomy with the internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling staining membrane blue by 49 patients. 81% (40) patients had idiopathic macular hole, 13% (6) traumatic case, 6 % (3) epimacular membrane. Anatomic closure of macular hole was achieved in 59% (29) of 49 patients by the operation. Visual acuity improved 2 or more Snellen lines in 28% (14) patients. Vitrectomy with peeling of the limiting membrane staining membrane blue of the better identification MLI is the effective operating technique to treat the macular hole.
