U.S., Aug. 20 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07129798) titled 'Efficacy and Safety of Myopic Macular Hole Closure Surgery Without Endotamponade Agent' on Aug. 12.
Brief Summary: Macular hole (MH) is a common condition that affects approximately 1.6/1000 elderly Chinese population. The prevalence is expected to be even higher in individuals with high myopia (HM), an established risk factor for MH. Without prompt surgical intervention, it can lead to irreversible vision loss and retinal detachment. Standard MH surgery involves pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with internal limiting membrane (ILM peeling), followed by endotamponade agents to appose the MH edge.
