Abstract
The vitreomacular interface in eyes with DDME is characterized by a layer of native vitreous collagen and a varying cellular component. Tangential vitreomacular traction is associated with multilayered membranes situated on a layer of vitreous collagen. Resolution of macular edema does not depend on the presence and removal of contractile membranes. In eyes without tangential traction, complete removal of epimacular tissue also leads to fluid resorption.
