Аннотация
BACKGROUND: A bilateral monofocal detachment of the pigment epithelium (RPE) without any signs of ARMD or other retinal pathology represents a therapeutic challenge.
PATIENT: An otherwise healthy 51-year-old woman presented first with a monocular, later a binocular decrease of visual acuity and metamorphopsia. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed a bilateral dome-shaped detachment of the RPE. Pooling beneath the detachment was documented using fluorescein angiography. A choroidal neovascularisation could be excluded by means of indocyanine green angiography (ICG). Due to the binocular decrease of visual acuity from 20/20 to 20/63 on the right eye and 20/100 on the left eye in spite of intensive systemic acetazolamide therapy both eyes were treated with photodynamic therapy (PDT) using verteporfin. During monthly controls, the visual acuity increased up to 20/20 on the right eye and 20/25 on the left eye. Metamorphopsia was also reduced.
CONCLUSION: An idiopathic detachment of the pigment epithelium can effectively be treated using PDT whereas the underlying pathology remains unclear.
