A Neural Network for the Prediction of the Visual Acuity Gained from Vitrectomy and Peeling for Epiretinal Membrane

Purpose: A significant proportion of patients with epiretinal membrane (ERM) demonstrate improvement in visual acuity (VA) 3 months after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and membrane peeling. The identification of these patients before surgery is clinically relevant. Design: This retrospective study was...
