description | Bilateral presentation of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) is a rare occurrence. We report a case of bilateral multiple evanescent white dot syndrome in a young female patient with asymmetrical manifestation. She presented with sudden onset of right eye central blurring of vision and dyschromatopsia. Fundus examination however showed bilateral multiple grey-white intra-retinal punctate lesions with an asymmetrical manifestation of the swollen optic disc and foveal granularity over the right. Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) showed the presence of juxta foveal subretinal fluid and disrupted inner segment-outer segment (IS-OS) junction over the right eye. The patient had a spontaneous complete recovery within six weeks’ time. |
