A macular hole is a small break in the macula, located in the center of the eye's light-sensitive tissue called the retina.
In either case, the fluid that has replaced the shrunken vitreous can then seep through the hole onto the macula, blurring and distorting central vision.
Depending upon the degree of attachment or traction between the vitreous and the retina, there may be risk of developing a macular hole in the other eye.
In those cases where the vitreous has already become separated from the retinal surface, there is very little chance of developing a macular hole in the other eye.
