Restoration of Foveal Thickness and Architecture After Macula-Off Retinal Detachment Repair [Retina]

Conclusions.
Optical coherence tomography scans taken serially at the same location showed a progressive increase of HNL+ONL, ELM-EZ, and EZ-RPE thicknesses and restoration of the integrity of outer retinal bands after repair of fovea-off RRD. The use of software able to rescan at exactly the same area is crucial to correctly follow and interpret the reconstitution of the retinal bands and to correlate them to BCVA recovery.
