SPECTRAL DOMAIN-OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FINDINGS OF COMMOTIO RETINAE WITH ASSOCIATED SEROUS RETINAL DETACHMENT.

PURPOSE: To describe the appearance of a serous retinal detachment associated with commotio retinae on spectral domain optical coherence tomography.

METHODS

Case report.

RESULTS

This case demonstrates the rare presentation of subretinal fluid in commotio retinae. Characteristic outer retinal changes associated with commotio retinae were also seen. Treatment was deferred and the subretinal fluid resolved within 1 week.

CONCLUSION

Commotio retinae is rarely associated with a serous retinal detachment. This presentation is important to identify as it can avoid unnecessary workup and treatment.
