Overview
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).

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
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.
