Intravitreal gas for symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion: a synthesis of the literature [PDF]
AbstractSymptomatic vitreomacular adhesion (sVMA) is defined as visual loss secondary to foveal damage from vitreomacular traction (VMT) and includes isolated VMT, impending macular hole (MH), and full‐thickness MH with persisting vitreous attachment.

Ocriplasmin for symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion. [PDF]
Symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion (sVMA) is a recognised cause of visual loss and by tradition has been managed by pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). A less invasive alternative to surgery in some people is enzymatic vitreolysis, using an intravitreal injection of ocriplasmin.To assess the efficacy and safety of ocriplasmin compared to no treatment, sham or

Ocriplasmin for symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion: an evidence-based review of its potential. [PDF]
Vitreomacular traction is a multicategory entity that may cause substantial visual loss due to the formation of a macular hole or traction-induced tissue distortion. The advent of optical coherent tomography (OCT) has demonstrated the anatomic features of persistent vitreomacular attachment (VMA) more definitively, including in many asymptomatic or ...

Cost–effectiveness analysis of ocriplasmin versus watchful waiting for treatment of symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion in the US [PDF]
Aim: Evaluate the cost–effectiveness of ocriplasmin in symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion (VMA) with or without full-thickness macular hole ≤400 μm versus standard of care. Methods: A state-transition model simulated a cohort through disease health states; assignment of utilities to health states ...

PATIENT-REPORTED VISUAL FUNCTION FROM THE OCRIPLASMIN FOR TREATMENT FOR SYMPTOMATIC VITREOMACULAR ADHESION, INCLUDING MACULAR HOLE (OASIS) STUDY. [PDF]
Purpose: To evaluate patient-reported visual function after ocriplasmin through the 25-item National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (VFQ-25) in patients with symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion/vitreomacular traction including macular hole.

Budget impact analysis of ocriplasmin for the treatment of symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion in the USA [PDF]
Background: Vitreomacular traction (VMT) treatment options include watchful waiting, vitrectomy and intravitreal ocriplasmin injection (Jetrea ® ). This analysis used results from the recently completed OASIS randomized clinical trial to evaluate the 2-year budget impact of ocriplasmin injection ...

[Vitreomacular Traction Syndrome (VMTS)].
In vitreomacular traction syndrome (VMTS) an anomalous posterior vitreous detachment (APVD) with persistant symptomatic vitreoretinal adhesion is seen. The adhesion leads to a thickened macula, to macular oedema and a reduction of BCVA.
