EPIRETINAL MEMBRANE. A common disorder of the macula is epiretinal membrane. An epiretinal membrane is a thin, transparent tissue layer that grows on the surface of the macula. The membrane may undergo shrinkage and contraction causing the tissue of the macula to become wrinkled or distorted.Eventually, this results in progressive blurring and/or distortion of central vision.n epiretinal membrane is a thin, transparent tissue layer that grows on the surface of the macula.
