ABSTRACT

We report a case of a 16-year-old girl, who was struck by lightning, and experienced blurred vision in the right eye (RE) immediately following the episode. She reported for ophthalmic evaluation two months later. Examination revealed relative afferent pupillary defect in the RE. Posterior subcapsular cataract was noted in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed macular holes and multiple areas of RPE hyperpigmentation in the periphery in both eyes. Fundus fluorescein angiography showed increased choroidal transmission with early fluorescence and late fading in the foveal region and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) stippling in the periphery in both eyes. This is the first case report of such nature in India to the best of our knowledge.

ABSTRACT

Presentación de un caso de hipoplasia foveal como hallazgo ocular aislado. Presentación observacional de casos. Se diagnosticó hipoplasia foveal aislada a en un joven de 17 años con disminución de la visión desde la infancia, nistagmus, ausencia de reflejo foveolar, y capilares cruzando el meridiano horizontal, utilizando fotografía del fondo ocular y tomografía de coherencia óptica (OCT) en la fóvea central. El diagnóstico clínico se complementó con tomografía de coherencia óptica de alta resolución, la cual mostró extensión de todas las capas neurosensoriales de la retina en el área en la cual debería estar normalmente la fóvea. La tomografía de coherencia óptica puede complementar el diagnóstico clínico en la hipoplasia foveal.
