Ultra-wide-field fundus imaging of acute retinal necrosis: clinical characteristics and visual significance.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To investigate the clinical characteristics of acute retinal necrosis (ARN) with ultra-wide-field imaging (UWFI) and analyse their visual significance.

Methods

Clinical and UWFI records of patients diagnosed with ARN at a single centre over 2 years were reviewed.

Results

In 38 eyes of 35 patients, the clinical manifestations of ARN on UWFI included patchy (12 eyes) or fan-shaped necrotic lesions (26 eyes), retinal arterial obliteration (38 eyes), vitritis (38 eyes), retinal venous haemorrhage (19 eyes), and vitreous haemorrhage (6 eyes). Retinal detachment was associated with the number of retinal quadrants involved (β = 2.145, P = 0.005). LogMAR BCVA at last follow-up was associated with logMAR BCVA at presentation (β = 0.473, P = 0.004) and retinal detach
