Epiretinal Membrane
Conditions
Brief summary
Improvement in visual acuity and retinal anatomy one year after surgery is assessed and compared to data preoperative and 3 months after surgery
Detailed description
Improvement in visual acuity and retinal anatomy (documented by optical coherence tomography) one year after surgery is assessed and compared to data preoperative and 3 months after surgery. Improvements in retinal morphology are analysed by remission of optical coherence biomarkers after surgery. Aim of the study is to examine possible improvements of surgical outcomes in the period up to the one year follow-up.
Interventions
testing of visual ycuity by ETDRS charts
optical coherence tomography generates sectional slides of the retinal tomography with light
