Fovea centralis, located at the center of the macula, is packed with cone photoreceptors and is responsible for central visual acuity. Isolated foveal photoreceptor disruption may occur in a variety of hereditary, degenerative, traumatic, and toxic chorioretinal diseases. These have been known previously by multiple synonyms including macular microhole, foveal spot, and outer foveal microdefects.

Purpose: Morning glory disc anomaly (MGDA) is associated with a high prevalence of retinal detachment (RD), sometimes requiring multiple surgeries. The study aimed to establish the outcomes of RD surgery in such eyes and predict factors influencing the outcome, if any.
Methods: It was a retrospective observational study of 9 eyes that underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for RD associated with MGDA.
Purpose: To assess the treatment benefit of eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) in vitrectomized eyes for tractional complications of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
Methods: In a retrospective multicentre observational study in India, the clinical outcomes of eyes with center-involving DME in vitrectomized eyes for tractional complications of PDR in people with type 2 diabetes with at least 12 months follow-up data were assessed. The DME status and visual acuity outcomes were compared between those who received treatment versus those observed.
