Visual Acuity and Optical Coherence Tomography One Year After Peeling of Epiretinal Membranes

March 13, 2024 updated by: Prim. Prof. Dr. Oliver Findl, MBA, Vienna Institute for Research in Ocular Surgery
Improvement in visual acuity and retinal anatomy one year after surgery is assessed and compared to data preoperative and 3 months after surgery

Study Overview

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.
