Macular Epiretinal Membrane treatment in Fort Myers, Florida

A macular Epiretinal membrane is a sheet of fibrous tissue that develops on the surface of the macular area of the retina.

Cause

This condition is caused by the vitreous gel shrinking, as it normally does with aging, However, sometimes scar tissue can develop on the macula, causing the macular epiretinal membrane.

Symptoms

You may experience central vision becoming blurred and distorted, difficulty reading or performing tasks which require detailed vision, this may slowly worsen over time.

Diagnosis

A full comprehensive eye exam is required to detect an Epiretinal Membrane, along with a complete medical history special pictures will be obtained. This photography is known as a fluorescein angiogram and an optical coherence tomography scan.

Treatment

Many cases of Epiretinal Membrane’s are mild and require no treatment. If vision is affected surgical intervention is required to remove the wrinkle.

Prevention

A good healthy lifestyle along with regular eye examinations.
