cuff of fluid should be reported. Traumatic macular holes can be identified by their ragged and irregular margins and can be easily differentiated from idiopathic macular holes clinically as well as by the history of previous trauma. Full-thickness macular holes can be differentiated from pseudo-holes or lamellar holes by the Watzke-Allen test or laser aiming beam test but these clinical tests have been superseded by the common use of ocular coherence tomography.
