Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) presents with unique retinal lesions and optic disc edema. Early diagnosis and understanding of MEWDS pathophysiology are crucial for patient management.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Retinal Diseases
  • Neuro-ophthalmology

Background:

  • Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) is a recently described condition affecting the outer retina.
  • Understanding the clinical presentation and diagnostic features of MEWDS is essential for accurate diagnosis.

Observation:

  • Three unilaterally affected patients presented with characteristic fundus changes of MEWDS.
  • Lesions included soft, white dots at the RPE and deep retina, optic disc edema, and vitreal cells.

Findings:

  • Fluorescein angiography showed early hyperfluorescence of white dots and delayed optic disc staining.
  • ERG studies indicated reduced a-wave and depressed ERP, correlating with RPE involvement.

Implications:
