Face-Down Posture versus Non-Face-Down Posture following Large Idiopathic Macular Hole Surgery: A Systemic Review and Meta-Analysis
Evidence regarding the effect of a face-down posture (FDP) for large idiopathic macular hole (IMH) is inconsistent. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether a postoperative FDP is required for the treatment of large IMH. Eligible randomized controlled trials published...

Evidence regarding the effect of a face-down posture (FDP) for large idiopathic macular hole (IMH) is inconsistent. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether a postoperative FDP is required for the treatment of large IMH. Eligible randomized controlled trials published before September 2021 were retrieved from the Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases. The efficacy outcome was the IMH closure rate and the visual acuity improvement rate. A meta-analysis was performed using a random effects model.
