Epiretinal membrane negative staining and double peeling in a single block with Brilliant Blue G.

PURPOSE: To describe a surgical technique for combined peeling of epiretinal and internal limiting membranes.

METHODS: The authors present their procedure of choice for epiretinal membrane surgery: negative staining effect using Brilliant Blue G and single block removal of the epiretinal and internal limiting membranes in a single step.

RESULTS: A total of 26 eyes were operated with the described technique. In all cases, the peeling was performed successfully and with no complications. Minimum postoperative follow-up was 12 months. There were no recurrences of epiretinal membranes.

CONCLUSIONS: The ideal surgical approach for epiretinal membranes should attempt to reduce mechanical trauma, light exposure, and dye toxicity.
