Abstract
Epiretinal membrane is occasionally encountered in children; it is usually idiopathic but can be due to conditions such as vitreous hemorrhage or shaken baby syndrome. Though persistent adherence of the symptomatic epiretinal membrane warrants surgical intervention, spontaneous separation of the membrane has been reported. We report a case of spontaneous separation of an idiopathic epiretinal membrane in a young child.Entities:
