Abstract

Objective To observe the characteristics of the images of optical coherence tomography(OCT) performed on the patients with uncompletely posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) Methods 81 patients(86eyes) with uncompletely PVD were underwent routine ophthalmic examination. B-scan ultrasonography and OCT examination. The Results of OCT images were analyzed. Results Idiopathic vitreomacular traction syndrome ( IVTS) in 27 eyes, idiopathic macular epiretinal membranes ( IMEM) in 25 eyes, laminar macular holes and macular holes in 25 eyes, The vitreous posterior membrane adhered traction with neurepithelial layer at macular and optic disc surrounding area in 9 eyes . Conclusions OCT can directly show the progress of the macula retinal disease with uncompletely PVD and be helpful in its diagnosis
