Vitreoretinal adhesions play a key role in the vector forces exerted on the vitreoretinal interface, leading to tractional retina deformation and macular hole formation. The aim of this study was to identify the presence of vitreopapillary and vitreofoveal adhesions in idiopathic epiretinal membranes (ERMs) with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and to evaluate their influence on the vitreoretinal interface.

Abstract
Vitreoretinal adhesions play a key role in the vector forces exerted on the vitreoretinal interface, leading to tractional retina deformation and macular hole formation. The aim of this study was to identify the presence of vitreopapillary and vitreofoveal adhesions in idiopathic epiretinal membranes (ERMs) with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and to evaluate their influence on the vitreoretinal interface.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
