Binocular Diplopia Caused by an Epiretinal Membrane With Foveal Displacement

J Neuroophthalmol. 2020 Mar;40(1):110-111. doi: 10.1097/WNO.0000000000000824.

Abstract

A 73-year-old woman presented with 3 years of monocular visual distortion and progressive binocular diplopia. She was found to have a comitant left hypertropia due to an epiretinal membrane causing inferior foveal drag. Displacement of the fovea from an epiretinal membrane is a likely under-recognized cause ocular cause of a comitant binocular diplopia.
