Comparative Study of Sharkskin Versus Grieshaber Forceps During ILM Peeling

Epiretinal Membrane Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparative Study of Sharkskin Versus Grieshaber Forceps During ILM Peeling

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the performance and anatomic outcomes of the Sharkskin internal limiting membrane (ILM) forceps and the Grieshaber ILM forceps in macular surgery.

Peeling of the ILM is a difficult aspect of vitreoretinal surgery and often daunting task from a vitreoretinal fellow's perspective. The hypothesis is that the newer Sharkskin forceps have a larger platform and micro-abrasions along the forcep surface to increase grasping ability and potentially limit trauma to the retina surface compared to the Grieshaber forceps. This project may also serve as an education tool for fellows learning the basics of ILM peeling.
