In this episode of the JVRD Author's Forum podcast, Dr. R.V. Paul Chan, MD, MSc, MBA, FACS of the Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary, Chicago, discusses 'Serial OCT Imaging of Spontaneous Closure of a Pediatric Traumatic Macular Hole,' published in the November/December 2024 issue of JVRD.
Host Dr. Timothy Murray and Dr. Chan discuss this case report featuring serial spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) imaging of the spontaneous closure of a traumatic macular hole (MH) in an 8-year-old girl. The hole closed by the 3-month follow-up but was associated with epiretinal membrane that reduced by month 5, recovering VA to 20/30. Anecdotally, retina specialists have considered topical carbonic anhydrase inhibition in this setting. If a posttraumatic inflammatory condition is present, topical steroids have also been used.
