| Abstract | Background The aim of this study was to compare the anatomical and visual outcomes of vitrectomy with or without internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for symptomatic myopic foveoschisis (MF). Methods A retrospective cohort study of patients who had undergone vitrectomy for symptomatic MF at our specialist ophthalmology department in China. Cases were retrospectively categorized into one of two cohorts, depending on whether or not they had undergone ILM peeling (ILMP) during their surgery. Over a mean follow-up period of 18 months, all eyes underwent repeated examinations, including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and optical coherence tomographic (OCT) recordings, particularly focusing on central foveal thickness (CFT), macular hole (MH) formation and/or foveal detachment (FD). Results We included 32 eyes (32 patients) with mean age of 62.2 ± 7.4 years. 31 patients (96.8%) were female. There were 21 eyes in the ILMP cohort and 11 eyes in the non-ILMP cohort. There were no significant preoperative differences in age, axial length, symptom duration or postoperative follow-up period between the two cohorts. MF was resolved completely in all of the eyes except one eye in the ILMP cohort. The postoperative CFT was significantly reduced compared to the preoperative baseline in both cohorts (469 ± 203 μm to 253 ± 56 μm; p = 0.003 in no-ILMP; 495 ± 178 μm to 244 ± 63 μm; p < 0.001 in ILMP, respectively). The final BCVA improved significantly in non-ILMP (1.27 ± 0.63 logMAR to 0.73 ± 0.55 logMAR; p = 0.021); but not significantly in ILMP cohort (1.25 ± 0.51 to 0.98 ± 0.57 logMAR; p = 0.143). Conclusion Vitrectomy, either with or without ILM peeling, results in a significant anatomical improvement in eyes with MF. Eyes treated by vitrectomy may have a better visual improvement when ILM was not peeled. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
