“…On the other hand, none of these SD-OCT findings were found to be an independent predictor of visual acuity in a multivariate linear regression model. In eyes with ERM, disruption of the ellipsoid zone has been reported to be negatively correlated with visual outcomes in multiple studies [14,31]. However, in our study, we did not find a correlation between disruption of the ellipsoid zone and visual acuity, probably due to the small number of patients with ellipsoid zone disruption.…”

“…Lower central foveal thickness, a thinner ganglion cellinner plexiform layer, and a higher central foveal thickness/ ganglion cell layer ratio were reported as significant prognostic factors for visual improvement after ERM surgery [31,32]. Decreased vision in eyes with ERM has been attributed to the thickening of the inner foveal retinal layer and central foveal thickness, which have also been found to be predictors of poor visual outcome and metamorphopsia after ERM surgery [33,34].…”

“…Epiretinal membrane (ERM) is the most frequent vitreomacular surface disorder [ 1 – 4 ]. Surgical treatment is usually required if it causes metamorphopsia and visual deterioration, and consists of vitrectomy and ERM peeling [ 4 – 6 ]. After the introduction of optical coherence tomography (OCT), different ERM subtypes have been described [ 7 – 9 ].…”

BackgroundTo evaluate the surgical outcomes of vitrectomy in patients with foveal herniation associated with epiretinal membrane (ERM).MethodsThis was a retrospective case series. The patients who had a foveal herniation associated with ERM, underwent vitrectomy, and had a minimum follow-up period of 12 months were included. The visual and anatomical outcomes were assessed during the first 12 months of follow-up and at the last follow-up visit. The main outcome measure was the reorganization pattern of foveal pit at month 12.ResultsEleven eyes of 11 patients were included. The mean postoperative follow-up period was 14.8 ± 2.6 months. The foveal contour was completely restored in 5 eyes (45.5%), partially restored in 5 eyes (45.5%), and was not restored in 1 eye (9.1%) at postoperative month 12 follow-up visit. The mean preoperative best corrected visual acuity was 0.61 ± 0.16 LogMAR and increased to 0.49 ± 0.16 LogMAR at month 12 (p < 0.0001). The mean preoperative central retinal thickness was 476 ± 128 micrometers and decreased to 302 ± 70 micrometers at month 12 (p < 0.0001).ConclusionThe foveal contour was restored in 45.5% of the eyes and visual acuity was significantly increased by a mean of 1.2 LogMAR lines at month 12 in patients with foveal herniation associated with ERM.

“…Secondary ERM can occur as a result of many etiological factors such as ocular trauma, cryopexy, intraocular surgeries and vascular pathologies related to the retinal artery and veins (4). Although the disease is generally benign, it may cause functional defects by causing shrinkage in the retina and veins, structural changes in retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptor cells and veins, and causing intraretinal edema (9)(10)(11).…”

Amaç: Kliniğimize başvuran idiyopatik psödofakik epiretinal membranlı (ERM) olguların klinik muayene bulguları ve optik koherens tomografi (OKT) ile değerlendirilen maküla özellikleri ile aynı olguların normal gözleri karşılaştırılarak değerlendirme amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: 2017 ve 2018 yılları içerisinde kliniğimize başvuran, bilateral psödofakik ve tek gözlerinde ERM bulunan olgular cinsiyet, yaş, görme keskinliği ve OKT bulgularına göre değerlendirilerek bu bulgular arasındaki ilişki istatistiksel açıdan değerlendirildi. Bulgular: 2017 ve 2018 yılları içerisinde kliniğimize başvuran yaş ortalaması 71,4±6,4 yıl (60-86 arasında) olarak tespit edilen 41 hastanın 82 gözü çalışmaya dahil edildi. Çalışmaya idiyopatik ERM'si olan psödofakik olgular alındı. Sistemik ve oküler hastalık anamnezi olan olgular çalışma kapsamına alınmadı. Hastaların 19'u (%46) kadın ve 22'si (%54) erkek olarak tespit edildi. Çalışmada ERM bulunan gözlerden 21'i (%51) sağ göz ve 20'si (%49) sol göz olarak tespit edildi. Olguların görme keskinlikleri ortalama olarak 0,35±0,24 (0,1-1,0 arasında) LogMAR olarak tespit edildi. ERM bulunan gözlerin ortalama santral maküla kalınlığı 355,4±75,4 (234-554 arasında) mikron, parafoveal bölgede 1-3 mm mesafedeki dairesel alanda superior kadran kalınlığı 371,4±60,3 (287-558 arasında) mikron, nazal kadran kalınlığı 371±52,5 (311-549 arasında) mikron, inferior kadran kalınlığı 365,6±44,3 (307-494 arasında) mikron, temporal kadran kalınlığı 365,1±52,2 (280-510 arasında) mikron olarak tespit edildi. ERM bulunan gözlerde maküler volüm OKT ile 11,3±1,1 (9,7-15 arasında) mm 3 olarak tespit edildi. ERM bulunan ve bulunmayan gözlerdeki santral maküla kalınlıkları, maküler volüm, parafoveal bölgede 1-3 mm mesafedeki dairesel alanda superior, temporal, inferior ve nazal kadran kalınlıkları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark saptandı (p<0,05). Sonuç: ERM ileri yaş ile ilgili bir hastalıktır. Hastalık vitreoretinal ara yüzeyde oluştuğu için OKT'de bazı değişikliklere yol açar. Anahtar Kelimeler: Epiretinal membran, vitreoretinal ara yüzey, görme azlığı Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical features of pseudophakic patients with idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) and to compare the optical coherence tomography (OCT) macular characteristics of the eye with ERM with the normal eye. Methods: Patients with bilateral pseudophakic eyes and ERM in one eye who were admitted to our clinic between 2017 and 2018 were evaluated according to gender, age, visual acuity and OCT findings and the relationship between these findings were evaluated statistically. Results: Eighty-two eyes of 41 patients with a mean age of 71.4±6.4 years (range: 60-86) who were admitted to our clinic between 2017 and 2018 were included in the study. All eyes were pseudopkahic. The patients with systemic and ocular disease history were not excluded. Nineteen (46%) patients were female and 22 (54%) were male. ERM was on the right side in 21 (51%) eyes and on the left side in 20 (49%) eyes. The mean visual acuity of the ...
