Abstract

We examined a 28-year-old male patient with pseudohypopyon in vitelliform macular dystrophy. The ocular fundi showed round cystoid lesions in the macula with clear fluid superiorly and yellow material inferiorly. Fluorescein angiography showed hyperfluorescent defects in the retinal pigment epithelium of the superior half of the lesion and blocked fluorescence in the area of the yellow material in feriorly. The electroretinography was normal and the electro-oculographic findings were abnormal.
