title: Spontaneous separation of epiretinal membrane in a child with Stargardt macular dystrophy.
abstract: We demonstrate optical coherence tomography findings of spontaneous separation of an epiretinal membrane associated with Stargardt macular dystrophy in a child. A period of observation seems appropriate in eyes with an epiretinal membrane associated with Stargardt's disease, as the membrane may show spontaneous release and the macular area may improve.
