Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography of Punctate Inner Choroidopathy

PURPOSE: To report a case of bilateral choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC) visualized utilizing optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). METHODS: Case report. RESULTS: A 29-year-old woman presented with new visual symptoms in both eyes. Fundoscopic exam...

description PURPOSE: To report a case of bilateral choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC) visualized utilizing optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). METHODS: Case report. RESULTS: A 29-year-old woman presented with new visual symptoms in both eyes. Fundoscopic exam revealed bilateral multifocal, small, well-defined lesions consistent with PIC. Optical coherence tomography demonstrated subretinal fluid and retinal pigment epithelium detachments (RPEDs) in both eyes. OCT-A revealed bilateral abnormal increased flow within the RPEDs consistent with CNV. Fluorescein angiography confirmed the presence of bilateral CNV. CONCLUSION: CNV secondary to PIC may be identified using noninvasive optical coherence tomography angiography.
