This 60YO male presented with gradual blurred vision in his right eye. Vision was 20/30.

Color SLO imaging shows a variably dense and glistening macular pucker with radiating retinal striae extending outwards from multiple areas of tangential traction. OCT shows the hyperreflective epiretinal membrane causing diffuse retinal thickening. The retinal bands are fairly well-preserved. En face imaging at the membrane’s surface reveals better detail for the irregular pucker and surface traction. Imaging 5 microns below the surface reveals dimpling of the underlying tissue.

Surgery will be recommended if our patient develops increased symptoms.
