- Description
- A highly myopic 30-year-old-man noticed sudden drop of vision and metamorphopsia in his left eye. OCT showed a macular haemorrhage (Fig. a) which partially resolved spontaneously after 6 weeks ( Fig. b). Four months later, VA improved to 20/40 and the image distortion markedly resolved ( Fig. c).
