Repairing Macular Hole and Macular Pucker

Host: Roy Levit, MD Guest: Allen Ho, MD What are macular holes and macular pucker, and how do we treat these conditions? Host Dr. Roy Levit welcomes Dr. Allen Ho, professor of ophthalmology and an attending surgeon in the Retina Service at the Wills Eye Institute in Philadelphia, to discuss back-of-the-eye vitrectomy for the treatment of macular hole and macular pucker.
