Ophthalmology AdvisorEpiretinal Membrane in Eyes with Diffractive IOLs May Need Earlier Peeling

The most difficult aspect of epiretinal membrane (ERM) peeling may be the timing — early removal allows the membrane to reappear, whereas later surgery may impair restored visual acuity. An analysis published in BMC Ophthalmology evaluates clinical outcomes for patients with diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) and compares how changing levels of ERM affect recovery.
