Introduction: This study presents a rare case of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) with atypical electrooculogram (EOG) findings, as well as abnormal en-face images of minimum intensity projection (Min-IP) and the en-face inner segment/outer segment-ellipsoid complex. Methods: A 25-year-old female patient presented with painless visual impairment and photopsia in her right eye for a duration of two days. Multimodal imaging was employed including color fundus photography (CFP), fundus autofluorescence (FAF), spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), and en-face images of Min-IP and the en-face inner segment/outer segment-ellipsoid complex were performed. Results: In the right eye, multifocal small white spots were observed surrounding the posterior pole and optic disc of retina with the granular appearance of the fovea. FAF displayed of hyperfluorescence. SD-OCT appearance of MEWDS demonstrated primarily disrupted ellipsoid zone (EZ), photoreceptor outer segments, and interdigitation zone (IZ) complex within the fovea. The en-face images of the inner segment/outer segment-ellipsoid complex and Min-IP exhibited hyperreflective spots in the right eye. In the left eye, interestingly, hyperreflective spots were also observed on the en-face image of the inner segment/outer segment-ellipsoid complex. EOG revealed an Arden ratio of 2.5 for the right eye, while the left eye exhibited an Arden ratio of 1.7. Conclusion: The en-face image of the inner segment/outer segment-ellipsoid complex in MEWDS exhibits aberrant features and it is noteworthy that a similar alteration may occur in the fellow eye. Further investigation is required to explore the relationship between MEWDS and EOG. The en-face images of the inner segment/outer segment-ellipsoid complex and Min-IP may help to elucidate the pathogenesis of MEWDS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
