macular distortion

[max46]

I have had  a macular hole repair  and  now I have an inky looking area in my central vision.  THe dr called it macular distortion.  Has any one every had this  happen ?

Yes, that area of the macula is where your best vision occurs and so even a very subtle
wrinkle can be very noticeable. This is rather common after a macular hole repair. Be thankful, though, because macular hole surgery is relatively recent and many folks used to just go legally blind and that was that.

distortion of the macula is common after surgery to fix macular problems.
