Multiple Evanescent White Dot Syndrome Presenting in a Patient With Punctate Inner Choroidopathy

Purpose: This work reports a case of long-standing punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC) presenting with acute-onset multiple evanescent white dot syndrome. Methods: A 44 year-old man presented with new onset of flashes and a peripheral spot of blurry vision in the right eye. His ocular history included PIC in both eyes. Results: Corrected visual acuities and intraocular pressures were normal. Posterior segment examination of the right eye demonstrated old PIC lesions and new, deep-yellow lesions in the posterior pole and midperiphery. Four months later, these lesions had resolved. Conclusions: Coexistence of PIC and multiple evanescent white dot syndrome has been rarely reported, and more research is warranted to investigate a possible shared etiology.
