Notes: OCT detects large macular hole in a patient with high myopia (A). Three months after the surgery, macular hole is successfully closed with a favorable configuration (B). The other patient reveals a large macular hole without high myopia (C). However, macular hole is closed with thin retinal tissues covering after the surgery (D).

Abbreviations: OCT, optical coherence tomography; ILM, internal limiting membrane.
