Dilated fundus photograph of the (a) right and (b) left eyes showing tortuous and dilated vessels (black arrowheads) at posterior pole along with large vascular loops in zone 1. (b) There was the presence of Roth spots (black arrow) and multiple flame-shaped hemorrhages (white arrow) as well

(a and b) FFA photographs of right eye: The retinal arteries were seen only till posterior to the equator with large mid-peripheral vascular loops (white arrows). There was gross peripheral capillary nonperfusion and peripapillary capillary plexus could be seen for about two to four discs diameter (arrowheads). (c) Late phase shows leakage from the disc (white arrows)
