Figure 2.

Optical coherence tomography and color fundus photography at baseline and at the end of follow-up. Just after surgery (baseline) the edges of the hole were elevated from the RPE, and the retinal layers were preserved (A–C). Retinal holes below 1380 µm at baseline closed spontaneously, either with complete apposition of the retinal hole margins (D) or with a gliotic structure, classified as a retinal plug (E, yellow dotted line). Retinal holes above 1380 µm at baseline remained open at the end of follow-up (I), and the retinal layers appeared intact at the hole margins (F). The stippled black line on CFP illustrates the direction of the final OCT scan (G–I). The closed holes appeared hypopigmented on CFP (G, H).
