Abstract

Purpose: To present a case of full-thickness macular hole (MH) that developed in association with acute subretinal hemorrhage from wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods: A retrospective observational review of a single case was performed. Results: An 84-year-old man with wet AMD presented with central vision loss and floaters and was noted to have a subretinal hemorrhage and an associated MH, which subsequently progressed to MH-associated macular detachment. The patient had a pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling, gas tamponade, and prone positioning, resulting in closure of the MH and improvement in visual acuity. Conclusions: A full-thickness MH developed as a result of foveal dehiscence from an acute hemorrhage caused by choroidal neovascularization in wet AMD.
