VITREOMACULAR TRACTION

Originally posted on @retina.rocks 01/05/2023

This 77YO female presented with vision of 20/400 in her left eye from severe vitreomacular traction with a secondary tractional macular detachment. The patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy in January 2021.

A few months post-vitrectomy, all traction was relieved, and the detachment was slightly decreased.

The detachment gradually resolved over the next year and a half, ultimately flattening completely with secondary foveal atrophy.

Although her final vision remained at 20/400, she was subjectively happy with her surgical results.
