Trou maculaire secondaire. Un traumatisme, dû à une déformation soudaine du globe, entraîne un aplatissement du pôle postérieur ainsi qu'un brutal étirement de la macula. En conséquence, la macula s’ouvre même si le vitré reste attaché au pôle postérieur. Les trous maculaires traumatiques peuvent être associés à d’autres lésions oculaires siégeant dans le segment antérieur ou au pôle postérieur. On les retrouve surtout chez des patients jeunes suite à un accident du travail, domestique ou à une activité sportive violente. 2, record 1, French, - trou%20maculaire%20traumatique
