ERMageddon - Wrinkle in the Space-time Fabric of Macula
Oct 29 2025 by SHRADDHA RAJ SHRIVASTAVA
38 year old female with Epiretinal Membrane (ERM) over macula, post laser barrage for multiple symptomatic Horse-shoe Tears (HSTs) and Lattice Degenerations. Posterior pole revealed tilted disc with peripapillary atrophy. There is thick opaque epiretinal membrane obscuring the underlying superior arcade vessels and causing foveal ectopia with distortion of perimacular vasculature. Patient was planned for Right Eye pars plana vitrectomy for ERM peeling.
Photographer: Dr. Shraddha Raj Shrivastava
Imaging device: Nidek Mirante SLO/OCT (Confocal scanning/Spectral domain OCT
Condition/keywords: ectopic fovea, epiretinal membrane (ERM), ERM, horseshoe tear, vitreomacular traction (VMT)

38 year old female with Epiretinal Membrane (ERM) over macula, post laser barrage for multiple symptomatic Horse-shoe Tears (HSTs) and Lattice Degenerations (seen on wide-field image). Posterior pole revealed tilted disc with peripapillary atrophy. There is thick opaque epiretinal membrane obscuring the underlying superior arcade vessels and causing foveal ectopia with distortion of perimacular vasculature. Patient was planned for Right Eye pars plana vitrectomy for ERM peeling.
