Vitreous attachment sites possess an irregular non-circular shape in a significant number of eyes with VMT. Consequently, the area of traction appears inaccurately described by its horizontal VMT diameter alone. As the area of traction is important for therapeutic recommendation, our results emphasize the need for a more precise description of the area of traction in eyes with VMT.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
