Abstract:
Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS), an entity belonging to the group of white dot syndromes, is characterized by pale spots at the posterior pole as a sign of inflammatory changes in the choroid and pigment epithelium. These spots are sometimes difficult to define by fundoscopy. Besides angiography fundus autofluorescence has been shown to be an excellent, noninvasive method to demonstrate these subretinal spots in MEWDS.
