We report a case of spontaneous closure of stage-II macular hole. A 66 years old lady presented with decreased vision in her left eye for the last 3 months. Her vision was 6/18 in right eye and finger counting at 3 feet in left eye. Optical coherence tomography showed stage-II macular hole in left eye. There was attachment of vitreous at the edge of the hole. Minimal hole diameter was 119 μ. Macular hole surgery was planned. During follow-up, hole started closing spontaneously. Nine months later, the hole closed and posterior hyaloid membrane separated from the macula. Visual acuity improved to 6/24. The purpose of this case report is to show that stage-II macular hole may close spontaneously with relief of vitreomacular traction.
