Color fundus photograph showing a macular hole with an associated epiretinal membrane exhibiting the classic cellophane sheen — a glinting, crinkled light reflex over the macula from the taut, semitranslucent fibrocellular membrane. The hole itself appears as a well-circumscribed round red lesion at its center, with the surrounding retinal striae reflecting the membrane's tangential traction.

Macular hole appears as a round lesion with a subtle perilesional neurosensory detachment; adjacent to the disc, a curvilinear choroidal rupture is visible, exposing the underlying sclera — the classic clinical correlate of the FAF and OCT findings above.

OCT b-scan through the same macula confirming a full-thickness traumatic macular hole, with elevated, separated neurosensory edges and no visible operculum — typical of traumatic (vs. idiopathic) holes. No vitreomacular traction or epiretinal membrane is seen, supporting a pure traumatic mechanism.

A rounded area of central hypoautofluorescence corresponds to a traumatic macular hole, from loss of RPE/photoreceptors. A curvilinear band of altered autofluorescence between the disc and the hole represents an associated choroidal rupture, concentric to the optic nerve — the classic contrecoup pattern of blunt trauma.

An 82-year-old pseudophakic woman with vitreomacular traction in the right eye demonstrated partial posterior vitreous detachment with persistent attachment of the posterior hyaloid to the optic disc. On OCT, the elevated hyaloid forms a striking crown-like configuration surrounding the optic nerve head - an “optic nerve crown.” The fellow eye had an epiretinal membrane and a history of macular hole repair.

Case description A 63-year-old woman with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in the right eye underwent a loading course of three intravitreal aflibercept injections. Following treatment, she developed a large retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear involving nearly the entire macular area, with marked retraction and folding of the detached RPE. Spectral-domain OCT Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography demonstrates abrupt interruption of the RPE layer with extensive retraction of the torn RPE. The displaced RPE forms a prominent, sharply elevated hyperreflective fold with dense posterior shadowing. Adjacent areas lacking RPE show increased optical transmission into the choroid. The folded tissue creates a striking double-layered configuration, resembling a folded “quesadilla,” corresponding to the markedly retracted edges of the large RPE tear.

Following treatment, she developed a large retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear involving nearly the entire macular area, with marked retraction and folding of the detached RPE. Fundus autofluorescence Fundus autofluorescence demonstrates a large area of marked hypoautofluorescence corresponding to loss of the RPE and exposure of the underlying tissue. In contrast, the retracted and folded RPE appears markedly hyperautofluorescent, sharply delineating the displaced pigment epithelium and emphasizing the extensive configuration of the tear.

Following treatment, she developed a large retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear involving nearly the entire macular area, with marked retraction and folding of the detached RPE. Color fundus photograph Color fundus photography of the right eye shows a broad area of macular RPE disruption and retraction. The torn RPE is displaced and folded upon itself within the central macula, producing a well-demarcated elevated pigmented lesion surrounded by an area of relative RPE absence.
