Enhanced visualisation of acute macular neuroretinopathy by spectral imaging

Purpose: To report photographic findings from a case of acute macular neuro retinopathy. Methods: Fundus photography on color transparencies, red-free digital CCD-r ecording, and laser-scanning ophthalmoscopy with monochromatic red and blue illumination. Results: The visibility of the retinal lesions was markedly enhanced by nar rowing the illumination bandwidth and by the stray light suppression of the confocal laser scanning ophthalmoscope, Conclusions: The diagnosis of acute macular neuroretinopathy, and possibly other chorioretinal diseases as well, can be facilitated by multispectral i maging and stray-light reduction optics.
