Purpose:
To describe the development of outer retinal tubulations in a patient with acute idiopathic maculopathy.
Methods:
Chart review was performed on a single patient to collect all relevant clinical information and diagnostic imaging.
Results:
A case of outer retinal tubulations in a patient with idiopathic maculopathy is documented.
Conclusion:
Patients with acute idiopathic maculopathy may develop outer retinal tubulations similar to other entities that cause disturbance of retinal pigment epithelium or photoreceptors.
