OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY PATTERNS AS PREDICTORS OF VISUAL OUTCOME IN DENGUE-RELATED MACULOPATHY

Abstract

Dengue-associated ocular inflammation is an emerging ophthalmic condition and often involves the posterior segment. Prognosis is variable. Patients usually regain good vision but may retain persistent scotomata even at 2 years despite clinical resolution of the disease. Optical coherence tomography patterns in dengue maculopathy are useful for characterization, monitoring, and prognostication of the visual defect.
