Interventions
Prospective interventional study In all patients (Group A \& B), PPV will be performed using a 23-gauge, transconjunctival, microincision vitrectomy system. Diluted triamcinolone acetonide (40 mg/ml) will be used to visualize the vitreous. After core vitrectomy, posterior hyaloid detachment will be attempted with the vitrectomy cutter in the suction mode. Then, the ILM will be stained using 0.05% Brilliant Blue G (OCUBLUE PLUS, India). In Group A: tenon capsule graft will be attempted In Group B: free flap ILM peeling will be attempted SF6 gas will be used as tamponade in both groups More than one vitreoretinal surgeon will participate
