The role of disorganization of retinal inner layers as predictive factor of postoperative outcome in patients with epiretinal membrane
Ophthalmic Research Apr 28, 2019
Garnavou-Xirou C, et al. - In subjects with idiopathic epiretinal membrane treated with pars plana vitrectomy, researchers assessed the disorganization of the retinal inner layers (DRIL) as a potential predictive factor of postoperative visual outcome in this retrospective study. At baseline, they noticed DRIL in 47.8% of cases. In all cases, they observed a statistically significant improvement in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT) between baseline and months 6 and 12. They observed a relationship between change in BCVA or CRT and baseline DRIL as there was a statistically significant difference in BCVA and CRT change between individuals with and without DRIL at months 6 and 12 vs baseline.
