  • 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 (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.

    Jun 15 2022 by Zach Seim

    Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) of a 69 year old male with Vitreomacular Traction affecting his right eye. Patient was referred to this office for Choroidal Melanoma in his right eye in May 2021. The patient was treated with Brachytherapy in July 2021 and this OCT was taken at a follow-up appointment in May 2022. Patient's vision was 20/30-2 at the time this OCT was taken. Patient states that his vision was better since his last visit, and that he sees floaters occasionally.

    Dec 28 2019 by Anfisa Ayalon, MD

    A 42-year-old highly myopic patient presented to the retina clinic with complains of metamorphopsia in his RE for the past months. SD-OCT revealed RE vitreomacular traction with stage 1 macular hole (A-B) and flat myopic retinoschisis (C). Visual acuity in the same eye was 6/30. After 3 weeks of follow up spontaneous resolution of vitreomacular traction was seen with full resolution of the symptoms. (D-E). Visual acuity remained without significant change.
