Brief Summary:
This study will compare by swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) the retinal morphology after inverted internal limiting membrane (I-ILM) flap vitreoretinal surgery for medium-to-large macular holes using infracyanine green (IFCG) vs brilliant blue G (BBG) dyeing. It is a single-center prospective, randomized study. One group of patients will undergo I-ILM vitrectomy with IFCG staining, the other vitrectomy with BBG staining. Postoperative twelve-month corrected distance visual acuity, macular hole closure rate, and SS-OCT parameters will be compared and statistically analyzed. The aim of the study is to verify if these parameters can be negatively affected by toxicity related to the use of one of the two dyes.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to compare by swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) the retinal morphology after inverted internal limiting membrane flap (I-ILM) surgery for medium-to-large macular holes (FTMHs) using infracyanine green (IFCG) vs brilliant blue G (BBG). This prospective randomized study include 40 eyes with ≥ 400 µ idiopathic FTMH undergoing IFCG or BBG-stained I-ILM technique. Just before surgery, randomization is performed using the sealed-envelope technique, based on the patients' surgical chart number. The random allocation sequence is generated by the trial statistician pulling 41 standard-sized pieces of paper out of a hat. Twenty pieces of paper are marked with the Letter I, for IFCG, and 21 with the Letter B, for BBG. The trial statistician then sequentially puts each piece of paper into 41 sealed opaque envelopes. These envelopes are numbered 1 to 41 and given to the surgeons. Patients are numbered randomly from 1 to 41 based on a surgical chart number related to the baseline testing session and intervention period. Clinical data collection and measurement of outcome variables are performed by personnel masked to the randomization process and not been directly involved in the patients' surgery.
