Abstract
These abnormalities probably reflectmorphologic changes and/or very subtle misalignment of the distal end of photoreceptors, are noticed in areas previously occupied by ORFs or pockets of subretinal fluid (both of which may cause metamorphopsia), and may be associated with metamorphopsia themselves.5 IS/OS skip RAs may still be visible in a substantial proportion of eyes 6 months after operation.6 We believe that becoming familiar with these subtle abnormalities might be useful to explain at least some cases of ‘‘unexplained’’ metamorphopsia occurring in eyes not showing gross OCT abnormalities in the macula after successfully repaired RRD.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
