Abstrakt: We present a case report on sclerochoroidal calcification (SCC), a rare condition involving calcium pyrophosphate deposits in the posterior pole of the eye in a 70-year-old patient. We provide an account of the clinical presentation and its appearance in multimodal images, using color fundus photography, swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT), ocular ultrasound, and the novel retro-mode imaging (RMI) technique. Visual acuity was 20/25 in the right eye (OD) and 20/20 in the left eye (OS). Color fundus photography revealed yellowish deposits located in the upper temporal arcade of both eyes. SS-OCT demonstrated masses of scleral origin. Ocular ultrasounds confirmed the calcification of these masses. RMI detected hyper-reflective images with marked superficial elevation. Systemic laboratory results did not detect any abnormalities, leading to the diagnosis of bilateral idiopathic SCC.
