I was first introduced to Internal Limiting Membrane(ILM) peeling in 1996 by Prof. Eckardt on his visit toMoorfields Eye Hospital. His elegant videos of ILMpeeling were carried out without the help of any dyeand were inspiring. Prof Eckardt subsequentlypublished his work in 19971. Morris et al hadperformed ILM peeling in 1990 for Haemorrhagicretinal cysts and published their 7 year followup in19972. This report also demonstrated the long termsafety of ILM peeling.ILM is only 6 micron thick and is the structuralboundary between the retina and the vitreous. It isadherent to the collagenous cortex of the vitreous onits one side, and to the Muller (glial) cell end feet onthe Retinal side3.
