AN EIGHT-YEAR RETROSPECTIVE STUDY OF THE ETIOLOGIES, CLINICAL CHARACTERISTICS, AND VISUAL OUTCOMES OF PEDIATRIC LAMELLAR MACULAR HOLE.

X-linked retinoschisis was the most frequent primary cause in pediatric LMH. Two types of LMH can be classified: tractional and degenerative. The latter showed a higher rate of ellipsoidal zone defect. Vision improved after LMH closed, regardless of surgery or spontaneous closure.
