Implication

This comparative evaluation assesses visual acuity and retinal morphology in idiopathic epiretinal membranes, suggesting gas tamponade improves outcomes.

Key Points

Application of gas tamponade significantly improved retinal morphology and visual acuity after surgery.
Gas tamponade resulted in a notable decrease in central retinal thickness and foveal thickness at 2 months post-surgery.
A higher percentage of eyes showed a normal ellipsoid zone with gas tamponade at both 6 months and 1 year follow-up.
Patients without tamponade experienced a slower recovery of visual acuity compared to those with gas tamponade.
