1. follow this link  http://www.eyemdlink.com/Condition.asp?ConditionID=341
2. Do a Google search of pars planitis

Usually a membrane means that a sheet of fibrotic material is growing over the macula (reading spot) of the retina (also known as an epiretinal membrane). This can cause blurred vision, a macular hole or promote fluid under the membrane (macular edema).

You need to see a retina Eye MD physician.

Riyeon,

23, here. I have pars-planitis with CME as well... Right eye had it bad.. 400's.. Left eye has a dull grey spot when I squint at the sky or a white wall... I know what that means. You should get tested for Lyme disease if you are in an endemic area.. The doctors dx'd me with MS 5 years ago.. My new neuro thinks it's lyme. amazing. Good luck, let's try not to go blind.
