Group Intervention Description Complete Peeling Complete Macular Peeling Patient underwent scheduled vitrectomy for epiretinal membrane or macular hole with complete macular peeling of the internal limiting membrane. Foveal Sparing Macular Peeling with Foveal Sparing Patient underwent scheduled vitrectomy for epiretinal membrane or macular hole with partial peeling the internal limiting membrane (foveal sparing).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Central Retinal Thickness (microns) 12-month Optical Coherence Tomography will be used to assess central retinal thickness
Retinal Sensitivity (dB) 12-month Microperimetry was done to assess macular sensitivity
Visual Acuity (LogMAR) 12-month ETDRS charts were used to assess best corrected visual acuity
