Correlation Between Central Macular Thickness and Visual Acuity After Vitrectomy and Internal Limiting Membrane Peeling
In this cohort, CMT and BCVA were weakly associated at 3-6 months and 1-2 years post-vitrectomy; CMT alone does not reliably predict postoperative vision.

- Why it matters
- Small retrospective cohort reports minimal association between CMT and BCVA after vitrectomy; contradicts the assumption that structural recovery predicts visual recovery.
- Limitations
- Small retrospective cohort with no comparator group; unadjusted confounders.
