Long-term follow-up of acute multifocal posterior placoid pigment epitheliopathy

Abstract

Eleven patients with acute multifocal posterior placoid pigment epitheliopathy were followed up for 47 to 175 months (mean 106 months). Seven of 18 affected eyes (39%) developed progressive mild alterations in the retinal pigment epithelium. Seventeen eyes (94%) had a final visual acuity of 20/30 or better. One eye with progressive retinal pigment atrophy involving the fovea lost visual acuity from 20/25 to 20/60.
