Analysis of retinal microstructure and electrophysiology in eyes following pars plana vitrectomy and membrane peeling for vitreomacular interface disorders
ERM with prominent inner retinal structural changes are likely to have a stickier ILM when peeled, leading to a subsequently DONFL. The appearance of DONFL results in an initial decrease in macular function recovery and slower post-operative visual improvement. Surgeons should be more delicate when peeling sticky ILM, especially in eyes with ERM with prominent inner retinal thickening or macular holes.
