Popis: | To assess visual acuity and optical coherence tomography outcomes after repair of secondary epiretinal membrane (ERM) after prior laser retinopexy for retinal tear with or without localized retinal detachment.Retrospective, consecutive series. A previously described optical coherence tomography grading scheme was used for imaging analysis.Forty-two eyes of 42 patients were included, of which 16 (38.1%) had a concurrent localized retinal detachment. Mean logMAR visual acuity prelaser retinopexy was 0.15 ± 0.13 (Snellen 20/28), which worsened to 0.56 ± 0.42 (Snellen 20/72) before ERM surgery (P0.001). The mean visual acuity improved to 0.36 ± 0.30 (Snellen 20/45, P0.001) 3 months postsurgery and to 0.31 ± 0.32 (Snellen = 20/40, P0.001) at the final follow-up. Most eyes exhibited advanced ERM characteristics (n = 19 [45.2%] Stage 3 and n = 15 [35.7%] Stage 4 characteristics). The presence of inner microcystic changes (P = 0.008) and ellipsoid zone disruption (P = 0.009) at postoperative Month 3 were associated with worse final visual acuity. Eyes undergoing ERM surgery ≤180 days from laser retinopexy (n = 16, 38.1%) were younger (P = 0.024) and more likely to have Stage 4 ERM characteristics (P = 0.001).Secondary ERM after laser retinopexy may occur rapidly (180 days) and exhibit significant anatomic alterations. The presence of inner microcystic changes and ellipsoid zone disruption postoperatively were optical coherence tomography features associated with worse final visual acuity. |
