Brief summary

This study evaluates the surgical outcomes of inverted internal limiting membrane insertion combined with air tamponade in the treatment of macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) in high myopia, and also to compare the treatment efficacy and safety between different surgical approaches of MHRD

Detailed description

This study uses a new surgical method (vitrectomy combined with inverted internal limiting membrane insertion and intraocular sterilized air tamponade) to assess its effectiveness and safety on the prognosis of macular hole retinal detachment secondary to high myopia, and also compares this new type of surgery with the current commonly used surgery (vitrectomy combined with internal limiting membrane peeling + silicone oil infusion).

Interventions

PROCEDUREGroup 1

Masking description

In this study, the third party independent evaluation method is used to evaluate the results of the study. The analyzer is in the masking state, and the subjects and the surgeons are in the non-masking state..

Intervention model description

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled study involving multiple visits within 12 months. The patients with macular hole retinal detachment caused by high myopia are randomly divided into 2 treatment groups. Group 1: standard 3-port 23 gauge pars plana vitrectomy + internal limiting membrane peeling + air-fluid exchange + silicone oil infusion Group 2: standard 3-port 23 gauge pars plana vitrectomy + internal limiting membrane peeling + inverted internal limiting membrane insertion + air-fluid exchange
