    Purpose: To describe the surgical approach with a screen-based heads-up, threedimensional (3-D) digital viewing with intraoperative optical coherence tomography (IOCT) for the successful repair of a myopic macular schisis (MMS) case. Case Report: A 62-year-old woman with vision loss in the left eye was scheduled for pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and MMS repair. Surgery was performed using the NGENUITY® system for surgical viewing, and foveal-sparing internal limiting membrane (fs-ILM) peeling was performed without gas tamponade, after confirming the absence of iatrogenic macular hole with I-OCT. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications. Visual acuity improved to 20/40 and the subfoveal macular thickness improved from 706 μm (preoperative) to 221 μm after seven months of follow-up. Conclusion: Heads-up digitally assisted viewing technology with I-OCT may be useful or preferred for patients requiring vitreoretinal surgery in the setting of MMS
