"Baseline optical coherence tomography (OCT) images are shown 4 months prior to autologous ""stem cell"" injections (ASCIs) in the right (A) and left (B) eyes. Three weeks after ASCI, the normal retinal contour was blunted by epiretinal membrane (ERM) formation in the right (C) and left (D) eyes. Vitreous hemorrhage and debris were noted bilaterally. Five weeks after ASCI, the ERM in the right eye progressed, resulting in progressive irregularities in the retinal contour (E). The left eye developed a tractional retinal detachment (RD) (F). By 7 months after ASCI, the patient had undergone a retinal detachment repair in the right eye at an outside institution. Fundus photographs show recurrent rhegmatogenous /tractional RDs with proliferative vitreoretinopathy in the right (G) and left (H) eyes. The view in the left eye is limited by a brunescent cataract. OCT imaging showed detachment of the right macula with a thin, hyperreflective overlying membrane (I). OCT imaging of the left eye showed thinned and atrophic retina with a thin, hyperreflective overlying membrane (J)."
