Abstract:
:A 75-year-old man presented to us with sudden onset of profound vision loss in his right eye and was identified as suffering from an ophthalmic artery occlusion. Apart from the retinal whitening and box-carring of the retinal arteries, there were characteristic triangular patches of retinal whitening in the midperipheral temporal fundus indicating a previous lateral posterior choroidal artery occlusion. The patient was a chronic smoker and had dyslipidemia. The carotid Doppler study showed complete occlusion of the internal carotid artery. The presence of these triangular patches of retinal whitening or amalric sign can therefore herald a more proximal vessel occlusion. Hence such patients require evaluation on an emergency basis. The characteristic features of the patches on fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography are discussed here.
