Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear is a rare devastating complication of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The believed mechanism lies in an adherence of the neovascularization to the undersurface of the RPE creating a contractile force that increases after VEGF therapy and causes the tear.

Mid Phase Fluorescein Angiogram: The scrolled and redundant RPE just temporal to the fovea blocks underlying choroidal fluorescence. The absent RPE, more temporally, results in a window defect with intense hyperfluorescence.

Autofluorescence image: Note the discrete hypo-autofluorescence due to the absent RPE temporally. Note also the hypo-autofluorescence due to geographic atrophy centrally.
