Purpose: To report a case of retinal break formed after intravitreal injection of indocyanine green during pars plana vitrectomy for epiretinal membrane removal.
Case summary: A 63-year-old female patient with a metamorphopsia and decreased visual acuity in her left eye was diagnosed as epiretinal membrane and underwent pars plana vitrectomy for epiretinal membrane removal. During intravitreal injection of indocyanine green for internal limiting membrane peeling, a retinal break was formed at 1-disc diameter above the fovea because of a bolus injection. The retinal break did not show any other complications anatomically during three years, but microperimetry showed decreased retinal sensitivity around the retinal break.
Conclusions: Retinal break developed after intravitreal injection of indocyanine green showed non-progression anatomically during three years, but functional disability remained.
