Official Title: Retinal Sensitivity and Optical Coherence Tomography Findings in Eyes With Idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane

Brief Summary:

Purpose: To evaluate macular sensitivity and its correlation with visual acuity and Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) in eyes with idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM).

Design: Cross sectional case-control series.

Methods:

Setting: Dijon University Hospital. Patients: Forty nine patients (49 eyes) with idiopathic ERM and twenty-seven healthy patients (27 eyes) as a control group.

Main outcome measurement: Microperimetry, Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT).


Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon

Current Primary Outcome: Macular sensitivity [ Time Frame: 12 months ]

The objective of this study was to assess macular function by measuring its sensitivity using microperimetry in patients with idiopathic ERM every three months up to one year. We compared the results of macular sensitivity to the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the OCT data to better understand the structure-function relationship.


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current

Current Secondary Outcome:
