    Right eye B-FAF image of a 73 year old lady, showing choroidal folds at the macula, just temporal to the fovea. We can see alternating hypoautofluorescent (dark) lines corresponding to the crests of the folds where retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells are stretched and thinner and hyperautofluorescent (bright) lines at the troughs where RPE cells are compacted, containing more lipofuscin.

    Pseudocolor SLO Right Eye fundus image of a 73 year old lady, showing choroidal folds at the macula, just temporal to the fovea. Intraocular pressure was normal, media was clear, and rest of the retina was unremarkable on examination. Left fundus was normal on examination. Patient was systemically fit. Patient was advised to undergo MRI Brain+Orbit to rule out any posterior orbital pathology compressing on the right globe. Results of the scan are awaited.
