Abstract

Purpose: To present the case of spontaneous closure of traumatic lamellar macular hole.

Material and methods: The patient (the girl) of 13 years was observed. The main complaint was loss of vision of the right eye after trauma by airgun. Results: Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SOCT) was performed in terms 3 days and 1 month after trauma. Lamellar macular hole was diagnosed by SOCT, best corrected visual acuity was 0,2. In term 1 month after trauma we observed spontaneous closure of traumatic lamellar macular hole, best corrected visual acuity was 0,4sph-1,0D =0,7.

Conclusion: The case of spontaneous closure of traumatic lamellar macular hole in term 1 month after eye contusion was presented.
