Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography and fundus autofluorescence evaluation of torpedo maculopathy

J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2015 Mar 13:52 Online:e8-10. doi: 10.3928/01913913-20150303-01.

Abstract

The authors describe the spectral-domain optical coherence tomography and fundus autofluorescence findings in a case of torpedo maculopathy. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography revealed loss or disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium and overlying disruption of the outer neurosensory retina. Fundus autofluorescence revealed reduced fundus autofluorescence of the lesion surrounded by a rim of increased fundus autofluorescence.
