macular hole

i had vitrectomy surgery on 9/7  today is 10/4 and I just learned that the hole didn't close should I have second surgery or do nothing?


This discussion is related to Is it common for a macular hole not to be closed 10 days after surgery?.

You need to have another surgery.  Closure rate in good hands is about 98%
