Based on OCT, the ERMs were clearly andpartially seperated from the retinal (27 eyes, 38.36% ), the retinal thickness of thefovea was the thickest in the proliferative ERMs and the thinnest in the ERMs withlaminar macular holes. The statistical analysis showed there was a negative correlationbetween the thickness of fovea and visual acuity ( r ＝ - 0. 454, P ＝ 0. 000).Conclusion:There were four types of images of OCT in IMEM: ERMs with macularedema, proliferative ERMs, ERMs with macular pseudohole and ERMs with laminarmacular hole; and the thicker the fovea under the OCT, the poorer the vision acuity in the affected eyes with ERMs.展开更多
