A 63-year-old male patient underwent vitreoretinal surgery with the use of perfluorocarbon. From a technological point of view, extended-field retinography presents many points of focus variation due to the difficulty of establishing a diffuse focus, as it is a recent post-operative case. In OCT Fundus Enface, although it has a low resolution, it is extremely important for documenting the presence of perfluor. Best seen in structural OCT.
