Patients with intraretinal cystoid changes before scheduled membrane peeling for epiretinal membranes are included. Patients are randomized for balanced salt solution (BSS) or air-tamponade.

Detailed description

Patients with intraretinal cystoid changes before scheduled membrane peeling for epiretinal membranes are included. 23G-pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peeling is performed in all patients. Before surgery patients are randomized for BSS or air-tamponade. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is performed 5 days after and 3 months after surgery, visual acuity is measured 3 months after surgery.
