Resumo
The purpose of this study was to describe a patient with multiple evanescent
white dot syndrome (MEWDS) who presented with classic retinal findings and
transient changes in outer retinal anatomy. A 20-year-old man presented with mild
blurred vision in the left eye, reporting flu-like symptoms 1 week before the visual
symptoms started. Fundus examination of the left eye revealed foveal granularity
and multiple scattered spots deep to the retina in the posterior pole. Fluorescein
angiography and indocyanine green angiography showed typical MEWDS findings.
Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography has shown transient changes
in outer retinal anatomy with disappearance of inner segment-outer segment
junction and mild attenuation of external limiting membrane. Six months later,
Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography has shown complete resolution
with recovery of normal outer retinal aspect.
