Macular Hole Treatment at Arka Retina & Uvea Centre

At Arka Retina & Uvea Centre, we provide specialized care for macular holes, a condition that can significantly impact central vision. With our advanced diagnostic tools and expert team, we offer tailored treatments to restore your vision and improve your quality of life.

What is a Macular Hole?

A macular hole is a small break in the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision. It typically occurs due to age-related changes in the vitreous gel, trauma, or certain eye conditions. Without timely treatment, a macular hole can worsen, leading to permanent vision loss.

Symptoms of a Macular Hole

• Blurred or distorted central vision
• Difficulty reading or recognizing faces
• A dark or blank spot in the center of your vision
• Straight lines appearing bent or wavy (metamorphopsia)

If you experience these symptoms, seek immediate evaluation at Arka Retina & Uvea Centre.

Treatment Options at Arka Retina & Uvea Centre

We offer advanced treatment options to effectively address macular holes:

1. Vitrectomy Surgery

   • The most common and effective treatment for macular holes.
   • This procedure involves removing the vitreous gel to relieve traction on the macula and replacing it with a gas bubble that supports the hole’s closure.
   • Performed under local or general anesthesia, with a high success rate in restoring vision.

2. Postoperative Care

   • Patients may need to maintain a face-down position for several days to allow the gas bubble to press against the macula and facilitate healing.
   • Regular follow-ups are scheduled to monitor recovery and ensure optimal results.

3. Observation (for Early Stages)

   • In some cases of very small or asymptomatic holes, we may recommend close monitoring to assess progression before opting for surgery.
