PURPOSE: To report a case of central retinal artery occlusion in a patient with macular telangiectasia Type 2 using multimodal imaging.
METHODS: Observational case report.
RESULTS: A 58-year-old woman who presented with acute painless unilateral vision loss was diagnosed with central retinal artery occlusion in her right eye with macular telangiectasia Type 2 findings in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed retinal whitening with unusual cherry-red spot plus small crystalline deposits in the temporal macula. Surprisingly, spectral domain optical coherence tomography of the contralateral eye showed characteristically intraretinal hyporreflective spaces, whereas optical coherence tomography angiography exhibited microvascular abnormalities in the deep capillary plexus. At follow-up, a pseudolamellar macular hole was noticed in the affected eye with no recovery of best-corrected visual acuity.
CONCLUSION: This case describes an onset of central artery occlusion in a patient with underlying macular telangiectasia Type 2 and suggests that it had a possible role in the acceleration of its natural course. The utility of multimodal imaging lies on better accuracy in diagnosis as well as prognosis, management, and monitoring of the disease.
