  • Unifocal RPE Hypertrophy

    Apr 2 2019 by Gary R. Cook, MD, FACS

    40-year-old white female with a well-demarcated area of unifocal RPE hypertrophy lacking the typical vacuoles seen in CHRPE lesions superiorly; V.A. = 20/15

    Diffuse peripheral RPE hypertrophy. There is a band of pigmentation just posterior to the ora serrata (upper left) where the RPE is darker and contains larger, spherical pigment granules(lower right). The junction (arrow) between normal (left) and hypertrophic (right) pigment epithelium is illustrated in the lower left view. A few areas of paving-stone degeneration are present at the equator (upper left).

  • Self-Applied Retinal Detachment

    Sep 24 2017 by Ivonne Jocelyn Rivera Alvarado

    40-year-old female, asymptomatic, without history of trauma. VA 20/20. No comorbilities. No ophthalmologic surgeries. It was a incidental finding. It can be observed a large RPE hypertrophy at the nasal retinal zone that borders the optic nerve with a line of demarcation that corresponds to a self applied retinal detachment.
