Abstract

We present a case of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy (AFMVD) in a 73-year-old man. Ophthalmoscopy revealed discoloration in both eyes, but typical subretinal depositions of yellowish material were not observed. OCT revealed epiretinal membrane in the right eye. Hyper-reflective subretinal deposits at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium in the left eye. Moreover, hyper-reflective deposits were also detected at the sub-ellipsoid zone and intraretinal layers. Based on these findings, we diagnosed our patient with AFMVD in vitelliruptive phase. OCT was useful in visualizing the location of the vitelliform material in a patient with AFMVD.
