    Background: To investigate, using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A), changes in perfusion\ndensity and in the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) in eyes with idiopathic vitreomacular traction (VMT) after ocriplasmin\ninjection.\nMethods: In this pilot study, we enrolled sixteen VMT eyes treated with intravitreal ocriplasmin injection. Sixteen\nhealthy eyes were considered as controls. Macular perfusion density in 3 plexuses [superficial capillary plexus (SCP),\ndeep capillary plexus (DCP), choriocapillaris (CC)] was calculated at baseline and at 1 month after injection.\nResults: After injection, VMT anatomically resolved in 9 eyes (56.2%), whereas 7 eyes (43.8%) achieved an\nincomplete VMT separation..........................
