Distribution of the scores for ERM visualization for each type of preoperative image. In 70 eyes, each preoperative image was scored from 0 to 4 according to the quality of ERM visualization: 0 = ERM not visible, 1 = vessel contraction, 2 = retinal folds, 3 = ERM limits, 4 = elevated ERM edge. Color fundus photography (CFP) obtained the score of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 in 30.7%, 35%, 16.4%, 14.3% and 3.6% of cases, respectively. Infrared-reflectance SLO images (IR) obtained the score of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 in 0.7%, 20%, 65.7% 9.3% and 4.3% of cases, respectively. Blue-reflectance SLO images (BR) obtained the score of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 in 7.1%, 5.7%, 25%, 44.3% and 17.9% of cases, respectively. En Face OCT images (En Face) obtained the score of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 in 2.1%, 0%, 29.5%, 52.9% and 15.7% of cases, respectively.
