Özet

A 72-year-old man was referred to the ophthalmology department with decreased VA in his left eye. The fundus examination revealed a macular hole in the right eye and a dull foveal refex in the left eye. Macular cystic spaces and incomplete posterior vitreous detachment with macular traction were detected in the left eye by spectral domain optic coherence tomography. One month later at the second follow up, the patient's best corrected visual acuity had improved to 20/20 in the left eye, and SD-OCT revealed resolution of the macular cysts and macular traction. Early spontaneous resolution should be kept in mind as a rare fnding of vitreomacular traction syndrome, and SD-OCT imaging is an indispensable method for detecting macular pathologies before surgical planning.
