    A 36-year-old male with bilateral visual loss of 3 months' duration, with no relevant medical history on inquiry. A round-shaped lesion with well-defined borders and a yellowish-white color is observed in the macula of both eyes, accompanied by vitreous cellularity. The macular OCT shows a dentate RPE. The VDRL, FTA-ABS, and HIV tests were positive.
