- Septic emboli. The fundus photographs illustrate a man with subacute bacterial endocarditis who presented with branch retinal artery occlusion in the left eye and a single Roth spot in the right eye. The lower views show Roth spots from two different cases. There is an infiltration of neutrophils in the center and extravasated blood in the periphery. (Courtesy of P. Robb McDonald, M.D.)
