| Popis: |
Torpedo maculopathy is a rare congenital defect of the retinal pigment epithelium that produces a disruption of outer retinal layers. It is a hypopigmented torpedo-shaped lesion temporal to the macula, pointing toward the fovea. The visual acuity is usually normal because there is no foveal involvement. Regular follow-up is required in these patients as they can develop choroidal neovascularization. |
