A 63-year-old Caucasian woman presented with the complaint of decreased visual acuity and metamorphopsia in her right eye. She wasdiagnosed with vitreomacular traction (VMT) and concurrent diabetic macular edema (DME). The patient’s best corrected visual acuity was3/10 and central macular thickness (CMT) was 387 μm in the right eye. Intravitreal anti-VEGF injection was recommended for the treatment ofsymptomatic VMT with DME which did not show spontaneous improvement. One month later, her BCVA increased to 7/10 and VMT resolved(CMT decreased to 247 μm). Visual acuity and fundus fi ndings remained stable with no additional treatment during the one-year follow-up.
