Disorganization of retinal inner layers may be biomarker for macular surgery outcomes

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Patients with idiopathic epiretinal membranes and severe disorganization of retinal inner layers did not experience significant improvements in vision after undergoing pars plana vitrectomy with epiretinal membrane peeling, according to a speaker here.
“DRIL (disorganization of retinal inner layers) severity strongly correlates with functional and anatomical measures in patients with idiopathic ERM (epiretinal membrane), and DRIL can be used as a biomarker to predict outcomes after surgery,” Matias Iglicki, MD, said at the Retina World Congress.
