Epiretinal membrane (ERM) is a common complication of uveitis and can lead to vision loss. While there have been only two case reports in the scientific literature depicting spontaneous regression of inflammation-associated ERM, spontaneous separation is a rare but possible event.
Epiretinal membrane (ERM) represents a common complication of uveitis that may contribute independently to vision loss in patients with uveitis. Although spontaneous idiopathic ERM separation has been previously reported, to the best of our knowledge there are only two case reports in the scientific literature that depicts spontaneous regression of an inflammation-associated ERM. Spontaneous ERM separation is a rare but possible event, which occurs most often subsequent to posterior vitreous detachment. We present a case series of three patients with uveitis that exhibit the formation and subsequent spontaneous resolution of an inflammatory ERM.
