We report the result of vitreous surgery in a 20-year-old male patient with traumatic macular hole with choroidal rupture running across PMB [Figure 1a] who presented 6 weeks after injury. Macular hole was found to be closed at 4 weeks after surgery, and at 8-week follow-up [Figures 1b and 2b], BCVA improved to 20/20 in OS.

On examination, his best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/200 and optical coherence tomography (OCT) scan revealed full-thickness macular hole and choroidal rupture involving retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) under PMB [Figure 2a]. 25-G pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling and SF6 gas injection were performed followed by face down positioning for 7 days. Macular hole was found to be closed at 4 weeks after surgery, and at 8-week follow-up [Figures 1b and 2b], BCVA improved to 20/20 in OS.
