Case 1. Macular hole reopening after cataract extraction, and closure after reoperation. Top left, blue filter photograph: reopening of the macular hole with epiretinal membrane formation 7 months after cataract surgery and 19 months after macular hole surgery. VA=20/125. Top right, fluorescein angiography. Round central hyperfluorescence of the hole and moderate intraretinal dye leakage, with no cystoid spaces in the macula. Bottom left, red-free photograph. Closure of the hole after reoperation and complete removal of the epiretinal membrane. VA= 20/50. Bottom right, fluorescein angiography showing faint residual hyperfluorescence around the macula.
