Inclusion criteria required high-quality OCT imaging and a minimum follow-up of 12 months. MTM staging was performed using the MSS, and treatments were categorized as concordant or divergent from MSS recommendations. Demographic, clinical, and surgical details, including visual acuity and OCT changes, were documented. Statistical analysis assessed the functional and anatomical outcomes in cases treated outside the MSS guidelines.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among 48 eyes, 27 (56%) underwent PPV, with 96% (n = 26) treated divergently from MSS recommendations. The median follow-up was 72 months. Significant improvement in visual acuity was observed postoperatively (preoperative: 1.00 logMAR, postoperative: 0.69 logMAR;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.043).
