O objetivo dos autores é detalhar o quadro clínico de um paciente com distrofia macular anular concêntrica benigna, quadro raro, que compõe o diagnóstico diferencial das maculopatias em alvo. Realizou-se avaliação oftalmológica com auxílio de testes de percepção de cores, angiofluoresceinografia e eletrofisiologia ocular.

The purpose of the authors is to show clinical findings of a patient with benign concentric annular macular dystrophy, which is an unusual condition, and part of the “bull’s eye” maculopathy differential diagnosis. An ophthalmologic examination with color perception, fluorescein angiography, and ocular electrophysiology was performed.

Choroidal folds is considered the most prevalent funduscopic finding in cases of orbital tumors. They are ripples in the retinal pigment epithelium, Bruch’s membrane, the inner portion of the choriocapillaris and in some cases, may affect the neurosensory retina, and then called chorioretinal folds. Several ocular and systemic conditions are associated with the finding and must be properly investigated and, if necessary, promptly treated. In this review we discuss the general aspects of choroidal folds, emphasizing their characteristic features in […]

Sarcoidosis is an idiopathic systemic granulomatous disease. It commonly affects the skin, lungs, kidneys, and central nervous system. In the eyes it primarily affects the uveal tract, conjunctiva, lacrimal glands and optic nerve. Here in we describe the case of a patient with systemic sarcoidosis and asymptomatic eye inflammation.

Diabetic macular edema must be assessed as early as possible, to avoid significant vision loss. To achieve this goal, there are many specific diagnostic tests that can be performed. The authors review the most common methods in diagnosing diabetic retinopathy.
