One-year outcomes of metamorphopsia and retinal displacement after epiretinal membrane surgery

Purpose:

To examine 1-year outcomes of metamorphopsia and tangential retinal displacement after epiretinal membrane surgery and identify predictors for metamorphopsia score at 1 year and its improvement from baseline.

Methods:

M-CHARTS were used to measure metamorphopsia. Distances between the intersections of two sets of retinal vessels were measured with infrared or autofluorescence images. Predictors for metamorphopsia scores at 1 year after surgery and their differences from baseline were identified with multivariate regression analysis.

Results:

Ninety-two eyes of 90 consecutive patients were included. The vertical and horizontal distances continued expanding for 1 year (P
