Indocyanine green angiography and scanning laser ophthalmoscope microperimetry in punctate inner choroidopathy: Case report

Our purpose is to describe indocyanine green angiography (ICG) and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) findings in a patient with punctuate inner choroidopathy (PIC). The clinical record of a patient with PIC evaluated at the National Eye Institute (NEI) using fluorescein angiography (FA), ICG and SLO was reviewed. ICG showed hypofluorescent spots in early and late phases that corresponded to areas of leakage in FA. These hypofluorescent spots disappeared following immunosuppressive treatment. SLO mapped the location of scotomas that correlated to FA and ICG. ICG and SLO can be useful adjuncts to FA and clinical exam in assessing disease activity and guiding immunosuppressive therapy in patients with PIC.
