Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital Researcher Adds New Data to Research in Epiretinal Membrane (Application of Subretinal Balanced Salt Solution Injection: A Novel technique in treating Severe idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane).

Researchers at Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital have developed a novel surgical technique for treating severe idiopathic epiretinal membranes (iERM) with ectopic intrafoveal layers (EIFL). The technique involves vitrectomy, removal of vitreous adhesions, and subretinal balanced salt solution injection, resulting in improved visual acuity and central macular thickness in patients. The study concludes that this approach shows significant visual and anatomical efficacy in treating severe iERM, with both anatomical and functional success observed in a small series of cases. The research was published in the journal Retina and can be accessed for further information. [Extracted from the article]
