Purpose: To describe the clinical effectiveness of a new imaging approach: en face spectral domain optical coherence tomography of the retinal surface before and after epiretinal membrane (ERM) and internal limiting membrane peeling.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of preoperative and postoperative en face spectral domain optical coherence tomography images of the inner face of the macula obtained from 20 eyes of 20 patients undergoing vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling for ERM.
Results: Preoperatively, en face spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging of the retinal surface clearly showed plaques surrounded by radiating folds because of ERM.
