  • Cracking the Angioid Streaks Mystery: Multimodal Mayhem

    Nov 26 2025 by SHRADDHA RAJ SHRIVASTAVA

    Multimodal imaging of right eye fundus showing Angioid Streaks with scarred CNVM. Color fundus photo shows hyperpigmented irregular lines emanating from the disc in a radiating fashion. Surrounding the angioid streaks and at the posterior pole, we can see numerous dot-like hypopigmented deposits and a disciform scar at macula. G-FAF images better reveal more extensive hypoautofluorescent streaks than are apparent on standard fundus photo. Characteristic “Para-streak phenomenon” of focal hyperautofluorescent spots are seen along the margins of the dark angioid streaks, corresponding to the areas of pigment clumping seen clinically. The para-streak pigment clumps are better delineated on the novel Retro-imaging method, appearing as raised bumps surrounding the angioid streaks.

    G-FAF image of left eye better reveals more extensive hypoautofluorescent streaks than might be apparent on standard fundus photo. Characteristic “Para-streak phenomenon” of focal hyperautofluorescent spots are seen along the margins of the dark angioid streaks, corresponding to the areas of pigment clumping seen clinically.

    Left eye pseudocolor fundus photo showing hyperpigmented irregular lines emanating from the disc in a radiating fashion. Surrounding the angioid streaks and at the posterior pole, we can see numerous dot-like hypopigmented deposits along with a grayish-green membrane with exudates at the macula. The image is suggestive of Angioid Streaks with CNVM.
