Prognostic Factors in Epiretinal Membrane Surgery

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Retrospective interventional case series study reporting preoperative clinical and anatomical factors associated with visual recovery 1 year after combined cataract and idiopathic epiretinal membrane surgery. Age, duration of symptoms, and preoperative best corrected visual acuity appeared to be reliable prognostic factors. Combining these factors with analysis of the photoreceptors' inner and outer segments junction in spectral-domain optical coherence tomography provides a predictive score to estimate individual chances of good visual recovery

Conditions

  • Epiretinal Membranes

Interventions

PROCEDURE

a combined cataract and ERM surgery

All patients underwent a combined cataract and ERM surgery owing to visual impairment or disabling metamorphopsia. A complete ophthalmological examination was performed before and at 1,6, and 12 months after the surgery, including best corrected visual acuity with Snellen charts converted into the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, indirect fundus, and macular optical coherence tomography
