Abstract | RATIONALE: PATIENT CONCERNS: An 80-year-old man complained of distorted vision and decreased visual acuity (VA) in his left eye for 12 months. DIAGNOSIS: We conducted quantitative functional evaluation on the area of RS and SRD using the Humphrey visual field analyzer. Fundus examination and optical coherence tomography showed SRD and RS in connection with the optic disc. The best-corrected logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) VA was 0.7. INTERVENTIONS: OUTCOMES: After surgery, SRD (and subsequently RS) gradually reduced and had completely disappeared at 31 months. VA gradually improved and was 0.0 (logMAR) at 28 months. The analysis of the mean macular thickness of the central 3-mm diameter showed that the macula thickness recovered to 300 μm at 17 months postoperatively. Retinal sensitivity began to improve at 24 months postoperatively and had increased at 48 months postoperatively. LESSONS: In conclusion, vitrectomy with JPL treatment for ODP-M had a favorable anatomical outcome as well as a long-term functional outcome. These findings provide useful information for clinicians who are planning a therapeutic strategy, including the choice of surgical procedure for ODP-M.
