Abstract
Methods: After vitrectomy, when there is traction extending to macula or macular puckering without visible traction – decision of internal limiting membrane was taken.Mean postoperative outcomes were best corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, diabetic macular edema for further epiretinal membrane formation. Post operative follow up was at day 1, week 1, 1 month and 3 months.
Results: Visual acuity were improved in 25 cases (92.59%). Sillicon oil was used in 13 cases. After completion of 9 months follow up, there was no macular edema ( central macular thickness < 250 µ) and no epiretinal membrane or further traction present. Visual acuity was improved in 78% cases. 12% cases reports reduction of vision due to macular thinning. Conclusion: PPV with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling has been reported to reduce retinal edema and improve visual acuity in patients with DME.
