We have prospectively examined 21 eyes with vitreomacular traction ≤ 1500 µm with or without macular holes ≤ 400 µm who underwent intravitreal injection of ocriplasmin. We retrospectively analyzed 21 eyes with VMT of different size with or without MH who underwent pars plana vitrectomy. VMT was resolved in 15 out of 21 (71 %) eyes after injection, but only 2 of the 5 MH (both ≤250μm) were closed. VMT was resolved in 100 % eyes after vitrectomy, 5 of the 6 MH were closed. For a VMT ≤ 1500 µm without ERM, ocriplasmin is a therapy option. As well for MH ≤ 250 µm with VMT but without ERM. For all other patients with VMT without and with MH requiring surgery, vitrectomy is still indicated.
