AB  - OBJECTIVE: Our study aimed to characterize the natural course of vitreomacular 
      traction (VMT) syndrome, on which discrepancies have been reported in previous 
      publications, by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). DESIGN: 
      Retrospective chart review. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 23 eyes of 23 patients with 
      idiopathic symptomatic VMT syndrome diagnosed and followed up in Peking Union 
      Medical College Hospital from 2008 to 2013. METHODS: Clinical records of all 
      patients who underwent SD-OCT examination and were diagnosed and followed up as 
      idiopathic VMT syndrome were reviewed. Those who had at least 2 visits were 
      included. The median observation period of the patients was 8.2 +/- 7.9 months. 
      RESULTS: The 23 eyes were categorized into 3 groups based on the follow-up 
      results of SD-OCT: the posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) group comprised 4 eyes 
      that developed complete PVD, the full-thickness macular hole (FMH) group included 
      4 eyes that formed FMH, and the persisted VMT (PVMT) group comprised the other 15 
      eyes with PVMT. Epiretinal membrane (ERM) persisted in all 5 eyes in the PVMT 
      group. FMH occurred in 3 of 7 eyes with outer lamellar macular hole (LMH) at the 
      first visit. CONCLUSIONS: Spontaneous development of complete PVD in VMT syndrome 
      during follow-up appeared to be more common in our study than in previous reports 
      without SD-OCT. Persistence of ERM might be an unfavourable prognostic factor in 
      the natural course of VMT syndrome. The outer LMH might be a risk factor for FMH 
      formation.
