A 68-year-old healthy male presented with a few years of decreased vision bilaterally. Visual acuity in OD was 1/36 and in OS 20/40. Anterior segments were normal except for bilateral mild nuclear sclerosis and pseudoexfoliation in OS. In the fundus of OD a large atrophy with pigmentary scars were seen in the macula and nasally to the optic disc while OS presented with the same clinical picture but an island of normal appearing retina was seen in the fovea. On fluorscein angiography no leakage was shown. A diagnosis of Serpigenous choroidopathy was made.

The patient is a 61 year old female who first noted decreased vision in OS one year ago. The right eye is asymptomatic. The patient has systemic hypertension. There is a questionable history of angina. She has low back pain and leg pains of a non-specific nature. Uncorrected vision is OD was 20/25-, not improvable, and in OS 20/400, not improvable. Blood pressure recorded in the office was 230/105. There was mild nuclear sclerosis. Both fundi are characterized by multiple vascular abnormalities consistent with nerve fibers infarcts, hemorrhages (both deep and superficial), and occasional microaneurysms. In OS, there is a large subretinal and preretinal hemorrhage in the macula. This is surrounded by a wreath of outer retinal exudates.
