Macular pucker (vitreomacular traction syndrome ) is an alteration of the connection between the vitreoretinal membrane and the retina.
\nThe patient may have a drop in the sight or may see deformed due to an increase in retinal thickness.<\/p>\n

Visual symptoms may progressively worsen if there is an increase in vitreoretinal tractions and a consequent increase in retinal thickness.
\nDecrease in sight, increase in deformation of objects , increase in retinal thickness can lead to surgery (vitrectomy) with the aim of remove the tractions causing retinal changes.<\/p>\n

The diagnosis of macular pucker is done with an eye examination, with an ocular fundus examination in mydriasis and OCT examination of the macular region<\/p>\n<\/div>
