Abstract

Electron microscopic study of a surgically removed epiretinal membrane secondary to blunt trauma disclosed the membrane to be hypocellular and lined by internal limiting membrane on the external surface and by a layer of fibrocytes and myofibrocytes on the internal surface. The membrane was composed predominantly of new collagen. Occasional fibrous astrocytes, rare macrophages, and no blood vessels were present.
