Macular pucker occurs when a contracting epiretinal membrane distorts the underlying retina.
379.
Epiretinal membrane is a delicate tissue-like scar or membrane that forms on top of the retina. When it forms over the macula, it can cause distortion and blurring in your central vision.
Macular Pucker, also known as an Epiretinal Membrane (ERM) is an eye condition that affects the macula, the sweet spot of center vision. The back of your eye is lined by the retina, the light seeing layer in the back of the eye.
What causes an epiretinal membrane? Most epiretinal membranes happen because the vitreous (the jelly inside the eye) pulls away from the retina. This most commonly happens to people over the age of 50. The membrane may also form following eye surgery or inflammation inside the eye.
67042: Vitrectomy, mechanical, pars plana approach; with removal of internal limiting membrane of retina (for repair of MH, diabetic macular edema), includes, if performed, intraocular tamponade (air, gas or silicone oil).
(ERMs), also commonly known as cellophane maculopathy or macular puckers, are avascular (having few or no blood vessels), semitranslucent, fibrocellular membranes that form on the inner surface of the retina.
Epiretinal membranes are thin, transparent layers of fibrous tissues that form a film on the inner surface of the retina. Epiretinal membranes (ERMs) most often occur in people over age 50.
Epiretinal membrane Diagnosis Most cases of Epiretinal membrane are diagnosed during a routine eye test. Your optometrist can use Ocular Coherence Tomography (OCT). It is an imaging method used by an ophthalmologist to measure the severity of the condition.
An epiretinal membrane is a thin layer of tissue that has formed on the retina.
Patients with ERM are at higher risk for developing inflammatory changes after cataract surgery such as cystoid macular edema, neurosensory detachment and alterations of the inner-outer segment layer. However, these are not associated with any worsening of the BCVA within the first month.
Studies have shown that most epiretinal membranes do not grow or cause progressive blurring or distortion of vision.
Only surgical treatment can improve vision and remove distortions caused by epiretinal membranes. Nonsurgical treatments can't help — not even glasses, eye drops, medications or vitamins.
Purpose: Surgery has been successful in removing epiretinal membranes (ERM) from the macula, allowing some improvement in vision in 80-90% of patients; however, complications are relatively frequent.
Epiretinal membrane surgery was performed in 43 of 663 (6.5%) ERM eyes. Conclusions and Relevance On average, VA improved 0.27 logMAR (approximately 3 Snellen lines) in eyes with ERM. Eyes with ERM and VA of 20/40 or less showed more benefit after cataract surgery than those with better preoperative vision.
Full visual recovery may not be achieved until 3-6 months after your surgery and in some cases up to a year later. Your vision will never return to how it used to be before the problem started. You can eat and drink on the day of your operation and you will spend 4-6 hours in hospital.
