Abstract

A 68-year-old female with a full-thickness macular hole in the right eye was referred for surgical repair. The patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and intraocular gas injection. During the surgery, the ILM was stained using Brilliant Blue G solution, elevated using a diamond-dusted membrane scraper, and removed using vitreoretinal forceps.
