Rare Case of Bilateral and Asymmetrical Multiple Evanescent White Dot Syndrome

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 d...

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.
