Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is a non-invasive tool providing unprecedented imaging and analysis of vitreomacular interface. Two cases of vitreomacular traction were analysed by advanced three-dimensional (3D) SD-OCT imaging. En-face OCT permitted localisation of the exact point of attachment of vitreous to retina. A comprehensive view of the surface topography and anatomical configuration of vitreomacular affection was revealed by 3D imaging with segmentation technique. Macular change analysis programme revealed progression to full-thickness macular hole in the second case. Non-invasive high-resolution SD-OCT imaging has transformed the understanding and management of vitreomacular traction. Its role is further reinforced by the introduction of ocriplasmin for management of vitreomacular adhesions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D012160 Retina The ten-layered nervous tissue membrane of the eye. It is continuous with the OPTIC NERVE and receives images of external objects and transmits visual impulses to the brain. Its outer surface is in contact with the CHOROID and the inner surface with the VITREOUS BODY. The outer-most layer is pigmented, whereas the inner nine layers are transparent. Ora Serrata
D012164 Retinal Diseases Diseases involving the RETINA. Disease, Retinal,Diseases, Retinal,Retinal Disease
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000267 Tissue Adhesions Pathological processes consisting of the union of the opposing surfaces of a wound. Adhesions, Tissue,Surgery-Induced Tissue Adhesions,Surgical Adhesions,Adhesion, Surgery-Induced Tissue,Adhesion, Surgical,Adhesion, Tissue,Adhesions, Surgery-Induced Tissue,Adhesions, Surgical,Surgery Induced Tissue Adhesions,Surgery-Induced Tissue Adhesion,Surgical Adhesion,Tissue Adhesion,Tissue Adhesion, Surgery-Induced,Tissue Adhesions, Surgery-Induced
D000368 Aged A person 65 years of age or older. For a person older than 79 years, AGED, 80 AND OVER is available. Elderly
D014792 Visual Acuity Clarity or sharpness of OCULAR VISION or the ability of the eye to see fine details. Visual acuity depends on the functions of RETINA, neuronal transmission, and the interpretative ability of the brain. Normal visual acuity is expressed as 20/20 indicating that one can see at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. Visual acuity can also be influenced by brightness, color, and contrast. Acuities, Visual,Acuity, Visual,Visual Acuities
D014822 Vitreous Body The transparent, semigelatinous substance that fills the cavity behind the CRYSTALLINE LENS of the EYE and in front of the RETINA. It is contained in a thin hyaloid membrane and forms about four fifths of the optic globe. Vitreous Humor,Bodies, Vitreous,Body, Vitreous,Humor, Vitreous,Humors, Vitreous,Vitreous Bodies,Vitreous Humors
D020255 Vitreous Detachment Detachment of the corpus vitreum (VITREOUS BODY) from its normal attachments, especially the retina, due to shrinkage from degenerative or inflammatory conditions, trauma, myopia, or senility. Posterior Vitreous Detachment,Detachment, Posterior Vitreous,Detachment, Vitreous,Detachments, Posterior Vitreous,Detachments, Vitreous,Posterior Vitreous Detachments,Vitreous Detachment, Posterior,Vitreous Detachments,Vitreous Detachments, Posterior
