Comparison of Visual Outcome and Morphologic Change between Different Surgical Techniques in Idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane Surgery

Figure 5

Pre- and postoperative OCT findings in a patient with ERM receiving vitrectomy, membrane peeling, and whole-piece internal limiting membrane peeling. Preoperative image shows an ERM overlying the macula. The CFT and BCVA were 659 μm and 20/100, respectively (a). The CFT decreased to 484 μm one month postoperatively (b). At six months after operation, the CFT was 422 μm (c). At 12 months after operation, the CFT decreased to 382 μm and the BCVA improved to 20/30. However, foveal depression was not observed (d).
