AB  - We describe the temporal changes observed with spectral-domain optical coherence 
      tomography (SD-OCT) in the left eye of a 65-year-old man who developed a stage 1 
      macular hole secondary to vitreomacular traction (VMT). After 1 month, VMT had 
      resolved spontaneously with a complete posterior vitreous detachment. Following 
      VMT resolution, macular hole demonstrated progressive improvement and outer 
      retinal disruption recovered spontaneously. This report highlights the importance 
      of observation before any intervention for cases of stage 1 macular hole 
      associated with VMT.
