Surgery for idiopathic epiretinal membrane [PDF]
Epiretinal membrane is an abnormal sheet of avascular fibrocellular tissue that develops on the inner surface of the retina. Epiretinal membrane can cause impairment of sight as a consequence of progressive distortion of retinal architecture.To determine the effects of surgery compared to no intervention for epiretinal membrane.We searched the Cochrane

Aniseikonia associated with epiretinal membranes [PDF]
To determine whether the computerised version of the new aniseikonia test (NAT) is a valid, reliable method to measure aniseikonia and establish whether aniseikonia occurs in patients with epiretinal membranes (ERM) with preserved good visual acuity.With a computerised version of the NAT, horizontal and vertical aniseikonia was measured in 16 ...

Full-Thickness Macular Hole Progressing from Lamellar Macular Hole with Epiretinal Proliferation
Foveoschisis in association with contractile epiretinal membrane is frequently misdiagnosed as lamellar macular hole (LMH). The progression of true LMH with associated epiretinal proliferation to full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) is probably ...
