title: [Surgery of idiopathic epiretinal macular membranes. A retrospective statistical study of the functional result. Apropos of 42 treated cases].
abstract: Presentation of 42 glial idiopathic epiretinal macular membranes, surgically removed. Complications are rare. The functional improvement is greater if the operation is carried out when the visual acuity is low but the final result is better if eyes are operated when the visual acuity is still good. The main difficulties are the impossibility to detach the membrane, and the iatrogenic tears, which often need an internal tamponade by intraocular silicone oil.
