    Description
    HD-OCT image of 53-year-old man who presented with a superior small paracentral scotoma for 1 month. He had very small hypopigmented area inferior to the fovea and hyporeflectivity on NIR image ( #1). OCT demonstrated a vertical hyper-reflective band extending from OPL to RPE. This form is type 2 AMN which is due to occlusion of deep capillary plexus.
