Research progress of the relationship between choroidal thickness and idiopathic macular hole

Idiopathic macular hole is a full-thickness defect of retinal tissue involving the anatomic fovea and affecting central visual acuity and quality of life in elder patients. Recent evidence showed that the alterations of choroidal blood flow and choroidal thickness are associated with the formation o...
