AB  - AIM: To evaluate correlation of various spectral-domain optical coherence 
      tomography (SD-OCT) parameters including macular hole angle as well as various 
      indices with anatomical and visual outcomes after idiopathic macular hole repair 
      surgery. METHODS: Retrospective study of 137 eyes of 137 patients who underwent 
      idiopathic macular hole repair surgery between January 2008 and January 2014 was 
      performed. Various qualitative parameters such as presence of vitreomacular 
      traction, epiretinal membrane and cystic edges at the macular hole as well as 
      quantitative parameters such as maximum diameter on the apex of the hole, minimum 
      diameter between edges, nasal and temporal vertical height, longest base diameter 
      and macular hole angle between the retinal edge and the retinal pigment 
      epithelium were noted. Indices including hole form factor, Macular Hole Index 
      (MHI), Diameter Hole Index and Tractional Hole Index (THI) were calculated. 
      Univariate and multivariate regression analysis was performed separately for 
      final visual acuity (VA) and type of closure as dependent variable in relation to 
      SD-OCT parameters as independent variables. RESULTS: On multivariate regression 
      only minimum diameter between edges (p</=0.01) and longest base diameter (p</=0.03) 
      were correlated significantly with both, type 1 closure and final VA. Among the 
      indices, significant correlation of MHI (p=0.009) was noted with type of closure 
      and that of THI with final VA (p=0.017). CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows no 
      significant correlation between macular hole angle and hole closure. Minimum 
      diameter between the edges and longest diameter of the hole are best predictors 
      of hole closure and postoperative VA.
