RESUMO
PURPOSE: Non-surgical closure of a full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) with eye drops has recently been reported, but there are few similar reports in cases with pathologic myopia. CASE PRESENTATION: (Case 1) The right eye of a 75-year-old female with an axial length of 28.83 mm had undergone anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment for choroidal neovascularization presented with FTMH. Topical betamethasone, bromfenac, and blinzolamide treatments were started, and the FTMH was closed with visual improvement (20/32 to 20/20) after 5 weeks. (Case 2) In the right eye of a 55-year-old male with an axial length of 30.81 mm and lacquer cracks, subretinal hyperreflective material and FTMH developed. The above three drugs were started after anti-VEGF drug injection. Sixteen weeks later, the FTMH was closed with visual improvement (20/63 to 20/20). CONCLUSION: Nonoperative closure of FTMH has already been reported, but few in eyes with pathologic myopia. Our results suggest that nonoperative closure of FTMH associated with pathologic myopia under eye drops may be possible in some cases.
