Why is it important?
Epiretinal cells in ILM show proliferative capacity, with formation of microfibrils between adjacent sides of the ILM, which may explain adherence of ILM flaps to the hole border, contributing to closure of the hole in MH surgery.
Perspectives
I hope this article might contribute to understanding mechanism of macular hole closure
