(a) Fundus photograph demonstrating the angioid streaks and peripapillary subretinal hemorrhage with a dark multilayered hemorrhage at the fovea, (b) FFA and ICG image showing the peripapillary ring and hyperfluorescent wavy lines denoting the angioid streaks, blocked fluoresence at the macula, and in the peripapillary region with faint lacy hyperfluoresence (denoted by red circle). Inset SD-OCT line scan through the intersection of choroidal rupture and angioid streak showing RPE elevation and subretinal hyperreflectivity and hyperreflective foci in the inner retinal layers, (c) SD-OCT superior to the fovea showing Bruch's membrane breach denoted by asterisk in yellow and subretinal hyperreflectivity, (d) SD-OCT through the fovea showing altered foveal contour, hyperreflectivity in multiple layers, and obscuration of deeper structures. FFA: Fundus fluorescein angiography, ICG: Indocyanine green, SD-OCT: Spectral domain optical coherence tomography, RPE: Retinal pigment epithelium
