We describe clinical and anatomical outcomes of optic disc maculopathy using internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and fibrin glue application over the optic nerve in this retrospective, interventional case series of five eyes. Extent of neurosensory detachment and foveoschisis along with foveal thickness at baseline and follow-up were evaluated. The mean age was 29 ± 10.6 years. The most common location of disc pit was temporal (3 eyes). All eyes underwent peripapillary laser with 532 nm green laser before surgery with a mean interval of 4.9 ± 1.9 months. The mean baseline and final vision was 0.68 ± 0.23 and 0.61 ± 0.33 logMAR, respectively, with a mean follow-up of 7.2 ± 3.5 months. Three eyes showed complete resorption of serous detachment, while the remaining two had reduction in schisis and subretinal fluid. None of the eyes had any complications. Glue application in addition to ILM peeling improves the visual prognosis in optic disc pit maculopathy with restoration of macular anatomy.
