Abstract
Hyaloid adhesion to the macula is associated with AMD, and frequently causes VMT in eyes with CNV. Tractional forces may antagonize the effect of anti-VEGF treatment, and cause pharmacological resistance in a subpopulation of patients. Future studies are needed to define the role of vitreoretinal surgery in such cases. Spectral OCT/SLO allows careful diagnosis and follow-up.
