Abstract | PURPOSE: METHODS: Using M-CHARTS developed by ourselves, we quantified the metamorphopsia scores in 35 eyes with an idiopathic macular hole in 35 patients. Metamorphopsia in eyes with macular hole was characterized by straight lines recognized by the subject as bending toward the central scotoma. We also evaluated best corrected visual acuity (VA) and the central 10 degrees of differential light sensitivity using the Octopus 101 program M2. The size of the macular hole and the fluid cuff were measured using a scanning laser ophthalmoscope. We also evaluated the improvement in metamorphopsia scores after surgical treatment for macular hole in 22 patients. RESULTS:
