INTERNAL CHANDELIER-ASSISTED MACULAR BUCKLING FOR MYOPIC FOVEOSCHISIS.
2020
PURPOSE To present a surgical technique and case presentation of internal chandelier-assisted macular buckling for myopic foveoschisis. METHODS Review of patient clinical features, visual-acuity and optical coherence tomography (OCT) results following internal chandelier-assisted macular buckling for myopic foveoschisis. RESULTS A 48-year-old highly myopic female (axial length 29.85mm) underwent internal chandelier-assisted macular buckling for myopic foveoschisis with macular detachment. The best-corrected visual acuity improved from 20/150 to 20/40. Post-operative OCT confirmed central buckle positioning and demonstrated resolved foveoschisis and macular detachment. There were no complications. CONCLUSIONS Internal chandelier-assisted macular buckling is a valuable tool to optimize buckle position and patient outcomes.
