  • The electroretinogram photopic negative response of idiopathic macular hole (stage 2) by vitrectomy with or without internal limiting membrane peeling

    ObjectiveTo observe the electroretinogram (ERG) photopic negative response (PhNR) of idiopathic macular hole (IMH) in stage 2 by vitrectomy with or without internal limiting membrane peeling (ILMP).MethodsTwenty-three stage 2 IMH patients (23 eyes) were enrolled in this prospective study. All patients received the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), optical coherence tomography and flash-ERG examinations. The patients were randomly divided into group A (11 eyes, vitrectomy) and B (12 eyes, vitrectomy with ILMP). There was no significant difference in BCVA (t=0.96, P=0.350), diameter of macular hole (MH) (t=3.21, P=0.580) and the PhNR amplitude (t=0.98, P=0.353) in group A and B. All patients underwent 25G vitrectomy, ILMP was carried out in group B. The follow-up time was 3 to 6 months, with the mean follow-up time of 4.3 months. BCVA, MH closure rate and PhNR amplitude in group A and B were analyzed before and after surgery.ResultsThree months after surgery, 10 eyes (90.9%) gained MH closure but 1 eye (9.1%) failed in group A. In group B, 12 eyes (100.0%) gained MH closure. There was no significant difference in MH closure rate between the two groups (P=0.462). The mean BCVA of group A and B was 0.69±0.24 and 0.65±0.22, there was no significant difference between the two groups (t=0.49, P=0.722). The amplitude of PhNR in group A was (36.6±7.4) μV, which was lower than the pre-surgery PhNR, but the difference was not significant (t=0.73, P=0.472). The amplitude of PhNR in group B was (27.1±12.4) μV, which was lower than that the pre-surgery PhNR, and the difference was significant (t =3.56, P =0.002). The difference of PhNR amplitude in group A and B was statistically significant (t=2.17, P=0.042).ConclusionCompared with non-ILMP, vitrectomy combined with ILMP will significantly reduce the PhNR amplitude of IMH in stage 2.
