  • Kissing Choroidals

    Dec 18 2025 by Talhah - Zubair, MD

    72 year old woman developed suprachoroidal hemorrhage during Yamane scleral intraocular lens fixation. At clinic follow up they were found to be appositional. Suprachoroidal tissue plasminogen activator was injected in clinic and an emergent choroidal cutdown drainage was performed the following day with subsequent resolution of apposition. Appositional choroidals were managed urgently to avoid retinal adhesion/membrane formation.

  • Mud Splattered Fundus

    Dec 18 2025 by Talhah - Zubair, MD

    16 year old girl with incidental mud splatter fundus in both eyes on exam, vision normal. Maternal grandmother and great-grandmother with cone-rod dystrophy. Maternal uncle with albinism and nystagmus. Mud splatter is most common in females who carry the gene for X-linked ocular albinism (OA Type 1). It is a patchy pattern of light and dark spots (hypo- and hyperpigmentation) seen in the peripheral retina, primarily in female carriers of the X-linked gene, caused by random inactivation of the X chromosome (Lyonization) during development. It appears as dark streaks against a bright background on fundus autofluorescence and indicates mosaicism, allowing carrier status to be identified even with normal vision.

  • RPE - Rest In Peace (RIP)

    Dec 17 2025 by SHRADDHA RAJ SHRIVASTAVA

    Right eye pseudocolor fundus photo of a 50 year old patient, known case of bilateral familial dominant drusens with right eye CNVM, having undergone multiple intravitreal anti-VEGF injections. Image shows a CDR of 0.3:1, with numerous drusens at macula with residual lipid exudation from CNVM, along the infero-temporal arcade. Temporal to the fovea, we can see a vertical hyperpigmented line corresponding to retracted and redundant torn Retinal pigment epithelium, leaving behind a well circumscribed area of depigmented fundus with bare Bruch's membrane underlying the retina, findings suggestive of an RPE tear post multiple intravitreal injections.

    Right eye G-FAF photo of a 50 year old patient, known case of bilateral familial dominant drusens with right eye CNVM, having undergone multiple intravitreal anti-VEGF injections. Fundus autofluorescence better highlights the area of RPE tear in right eye (temporal to fovea), which shows hypoautofluorescence due to lack of RPE and its pigments which accounts for autofluorescence signal. Whereas the linear hyperautofluorescence, represents the torn bunched up retinal pigment epithelium.
