Surgery for treating an epiretinal membrane (ERM) can be highly successful in improving vision and reducing symptoms associated with the condition. The procedure involves delicately removing the membrane from the surface of the retina, which can restore clarity and sharpness to vision affected by distortion or blurriness. Success rates vary depending on individual factors such as the severity of the membrane and the overall health of the eye. In cases where retinal scarring treatment is also required, surgical intervention aims to minimize scarring and preserve as much retinal function as possible. Advanced surgical techniques, such as vitrectomy combined with membrane peeling, have shown significant success in restoring visual acuity and enhancing quality of life for many patients. Regular follow-up visits after surgery are essential to monitor progress and ensure optimal outcomes in managing epiretinal membranes and related retinal conditions.
