[Unilateral maculopathy in a young male patient: A photic laser injury]. 2016
Service d'ophtalmologie, pôle médecine interne-ophtalmologie-ORL, CHU de Clermont-Ferrand, 58, rue de Montalembert, 63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France. Electronic address: ro.joubert@gmail.com.
We report the case of a twenty-year-old man with a unilateral maculopathy responsible for an acute visual acuity loss and a sudden absolute central scotoma. His schizoid personality made the medical history fruitless. The patient's best corrected visual acuity was 20/60. Clinical examination revealed a strictly unilateral maculopathy with pigment remodeling and hyper-autofluorescent areas. Through this case report, we describe the characteristics of the lesion and the pathway to the diagnosis: a laser pointer-induced photic injury.
