“…Recently, we focused on the depth of retinal folds caused by ERM as an objective and quantitative biomarker reflecting the tangential retinal traction force applied by ERM, 13–16 and we found that the preoperative maximum depth of retinal folds (MDRF) within the parafovea was significantly related to preoperative metamorphopsia measured by M-CHARTS, 17 a subjective quantitative test. 14 However, it remains unclear whether MDRF can be a quantitative and objective biomarker of metamorphopsia in ERM patients.…”

Purpose: To establish an objective and quantitative biomarker of metamorphopsia in epiretinal membranes (ERMs) and determine the optimal timing for ERM surgery.Methods: Retrospectively, 172 eyes with ERM were reviewed. Retinal folds because of tangential traction by ERM were visualized by en-face optical coherence tomography. The maximum depth of retinal folds (MDRF) within the parafovea was quantified. Metamorphopsia was quantified by M-CHARTS. The change in the distance between the retinal vessels after ERM surgery and the preoperative total depth of retinal folds between the vessels were quantified using en-face optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography.Results: Significant correlations were observed between preoperative MDRF and M-CHARTS scores before and at 6 months after surgery (r = 0.617 and 0.460, respectively; P , 0.001) and change in the distance between the retinal vessels after ERM surgery and preoperative total depth of retinal folds between the vessels (r = 0.471; P = 0.013). The preoperative MDRF values at which M-CHARTS scores were 0.5 before and 6 months after the surgery were 69 mm and 118 mm, respectively. Conclusion:The MDRF is an objective and quantitative biomarker of metamorphopsia in ERM. To maintain patients' quality of vision, ERM surgery may be performed when the preoperative MDRF ranges between 69 mm and 118 mm.

“…Only eyes with mass-like lesions with a thickness of greater than 20 µm detected by caliber tool were included. In a previous study, the thickness of clinically significant ERM was about 20 µm on SD-OCT images [4]. Therefore, we adopted 20 µm as the minimum thickness for EM diagnosis to avoid imaging error.…”

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of epiretinal mass (EM) in eyes without pre-existing retinal conditions. Methods: The prevalence and the characteristics of eyes showing EM during spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) examination were reviewed. Results: Among 2,221 eyes undergoing SD-OCT, 34 (1.5%) were found to have EM, which was detected following onset of posterior vitreous detachment (PVD); 32 of 34 (94.1%) eyes showed PVD, while two eyes (5.9%) showed diffuse vitreomacular adhesion at the time of EM detection. The EM was most commonly located at the superior macula, followed by the nasal macula. Of the 17 eyes with SD-OCT images obtained at the time of EM decrease, EMs from 12 eyes (70.6%) had diminished completely, while EMs from five eyes (29.4%) had resulted in low-grade epiretinal membranes (ERMs). The time interval between EM appearance and disappearance was about 10 to 12 months. Conclusions: In eyes without pre-existing retinal conditions, EM can develop after PVD and might indicate the existence of a denatured vitreous cortex with a cellular component. These lesions usually resolve spontaneously but can be associated with a low-grade ERM.
