  • Peripheral Exudative Hemorrhagic Chorioretinopathy: Ultra-Widefield ICGA

    Jul 20 2026 by Liran Tiosano, MD, MHA

    Ultra-widefield ICGA of the left eye of an 88 year-old woman with bilateral neovascular age-related macular degeneration demonstrates focal inferotemporal blocked cyanescence corresponding to an elevated, partially pigmented lesion initially suspected to represent an intraocular tumor. Ultrasonography showed a flat equatorial lesion measuring 0.95 mm, with medium internal reflectivity and a cystic appearance. Findings were consistent with peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy (PEHCR).

  • Cystoid macular Edema with Honeycomb Sign

    Jul 12 2026 by Kefina Jos

    A 57 year-old female presented with blurring of distant vision for past 2 months. The color fundus photography of her RE reveals abnormal foveal reflex. The macular area appears to be greyish, with central large cystic space surrounded by multiple small cystic spaces arranged in radial pattern. This pattern is influenced by the arrangement of Henle's fiber layer in which the fluid accumulates because of the breakdown in the blood retinal barrier. This anatomical configuration leads to the characteristic honeycomb appearance in cystoid macular edema.

  • Macular Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion with Yellow Dot Sign

    Jul 8 2026 by Kefina Jos

    Case of macular BRVO in a 50-year-old female on medication for systemic hypertension for the past 2 months. Color fundus photo of her right eye shows multiple superficial flame shaped hemorrhages within the arcade, along the infero-temporal region. Macula also shows a central yellow spot, which is a nonspecific sign of abnormal foveolar architecture. This could be due to sub-foveal fluid causing foveal elevation or vitreo-foveal traction. OCT shows multiple intra-retinal cystic spaces with hyper-reflective dots along with sub-retinal fluid.

  • The Eye Siren - A Case of VHL

    Dec 3 2025 by Surabhi Gupta, MS, DNB, FVRS

    A 25 year old man presented with chief complaints of dimuntion of vision in right eye for past 2 weeks. Best corrected visual acuity in right eye was 6/12, N8 and left eye was 6/6, N6. Montage color fundus photograph shows bilateral multiple capillary hemangioma with epiretinal membrane causing traction over macula in right eye. On PET-CT multiple metabolically inactive cystic lesion were noted in the pancreas and seminal vesicle with low grade metabolically active cystic lesion with enhancing septations in kidneys which were suspicious of malignant etiology. MRI brain showed presence of a small cystic lesion anterior to celebellar vermis suggestive of CNS hemangioblastoma. A diagnosis of Von Hippel- Lindau syndrome was made the patient is under oncologist care for suspected RCC.

  • Gyrate Atrophy

    Nov 22 2025 by Gaurav Kamble

    A 12-year-old female presented with progressive blurring of vision for distance and had a known history of convulsions. Ocular examination revealed bilateral proptosis and megalocornea. Fundus evaluation showed well-defined scalloped areas of peripheral chorioretinal degeneration characteristic of gyrate atrophy, along with cystoid macular edema involving the macular region. The overall clinical picture was consistent with gyrate atrophy.

  • Eye Finally Got the Ring... But the Retina Was Too Detached to Care

    Nov 5 2025 by SHRADDHA RAJ SHRIVASTAVA

    Left Eye B-scan ultrasound of a patient with old retinal detachment shows open funnel shaped hyperechoic membranous echoes, with high amplitude spikes on A-scan and a poor after-movement on dynamic B-scan, suggestive of retinal detachment. We can see a round echogenicity in sub-retinal location, with clear contents within, suggestive of a retinal cyst. This B-scan image is indicative of a long-standing chronic retinal detachment with secondary retinal cyst.
