- Description
- Early fluorescein angiography revealed early hyper-fluorescence surrounding the fovea consistent with retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) depigmentation. This accentuated the contrast between the normal blockage (hypo-fluorescence) of the macular luteal pigment from the surrounding RPE window defect (hyper-fluorescence).
