摘要
This report describes a rare appearance of retinal pigment epithelial changes in a 71-year-old woman with known long-standing, non-exudative age-related macular degeneration. She presented with visual distortion in her right eye and was found to have a retinal pigment epithelial detachment (RPED) on optical coherence tomography (OCT). Over the following 8 years, sequential OCT imaging revealed an appearance and progression of a break in the existing RPED, disgorgement of material from within the RPED, and appearance of hyper-reflective spots within the inner retinal layers, suggesting pigment epithelial cell migration. Visual acuity remained stable over this period. The RPED resolved spontaneously without treatment. The patient later developed new intraretinal hemorrhage, which was treated with intravitreal bevacizumab.
