Abstrakt: To report a unique case of a patient who developed simultaneous bilateral maculopathy presumed from intake of fluoxetine. The optic coherence tomography (OCT) macular showed a subfoveal disruption in the outer retinal layer in both eyes (OU), higher in the left one (OS). Although reported cases of serotonin recapture inhibitors (SSRIs) Maculopathy so far have been caused by sertraline, fluoxetine shares the biological mechanism, and OCT findings and ocular symptoms are the same as published. We should be aware with ocular symptoms in patients that take fluoxetine.
