Abstract
Subfoveal pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs) have been reported to develop full-thickness macular hole (FTMH). The response to treatment has been varied in different reports, with most cases having persistent PED even after successful surgical closure of the macular hole. Here, we report an unusual case of nonneovascular age-related macular degeneration, having a large subfoveal serous PED, leading to the formation of a large FTMH, which showed complete flattening of the PED with a successful closure of the macular hole with the surgical approach.
