Abstract

Spontaneous closure of stage 3 and 4 full-thickness macular holes (FTMHs) are unusual events. We present a case report of a patient with an idiopathic FTMH that closed spontaneously subsequent to the development of a raised macular lesion provisionally diagnosed as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy and discuss the possible mechanisms leading to the closure.
