Congenital Simple Hamartoma of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium
May 16 2022 by David C Sousa, MD PhD FRANZCO
A 49-year-old man was referred after an incidental finding in the right eye macula. Best-corrected visual acuity was 20/25. Anterior segment examination was unremarkable. Fundoscopy revealed a juxta-foveal heavily pigmented well-demarcated slightly elevated lesion measuring 0.4 x 0.4 mm. No other changes were observed adjacent to the lesion or elsewhere in either eye. Optical coherence tomography revealed an area of retinal elevation with high optical reflectivity and posterior shadowing. The findings are consistent with congenital simple hamartoma of the retinal pigment epithelium. Given the benign, non-progressive and usually asymptomatic nature of this condition, most patients are diagnosed in adulthood.

Thioridazine-toxicity
Apr 30 2022 by Niloofar Piri, MD
61 yo male with PMH of longstanding schizophrenia since 20s with secondary intellectual disability presented with decreased vision following a recent stroke. He was found to have bilateral chorio-retinal atrophy involving posterior pole with scalloped edges and coin shaped atrophic area at margins extending into mid-periphery, diagnosis most concerning for intermediate stage thioridazine toxicity given the history. Mother could find handwritten prescriptions from 1990s when he was on Thioridazine 800 mg daily for unknown period of time. Patient had better vision in the left eye which was affected by recent stroke and prompted him to seek medical care. Fundus photograph of the right eye is demonstrated here.
