Macular Hole Formation

Purpose: We report a case of recurrent macular hole (MH) formation and spontaneous closure in the absence of any vitreoretinal interface abnormality. Methods: A 49-year-old man presented for his annual ocular examination with no specific ocular complaints. He had a history of retinal detachment in the left eye, which was treated years prior with vitrectomy and scleral buckle. During a routine follow-up, the patient was discovered to have a full-thickness MH. Optical coherence tomography revealed the formation of an MH with spontaneous closure after 3 months without intervention. One month later, the MH recurred but once again closed spontaneously over 4 months. Results: The patient remained asymptomatic during the entire follow-up without any symptoms, vision changes, or therapeutic intervention. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first known case report of recurrent spontaneous opening and closure of an MH in the absence of any vitreoretinal interface abnormality, as revealed by macular optical coherence tomography imaging.
