[Fluorescein angiographic picture of sympathetic ophthalmia (author's transl)]
Abstract
The fluorescein angiographic picture of sympathetic ophthalmia is described in an instructive case, which first started at the posterior pole. In the acute phase there was a picture of an exudative process with multiple subretinal enlarging hyperfluorecent spots and some dye-pooling. The retinal vasculature was unaffected. In the healing phase a transitory involvement of the optic nerve head was observed. The cicatricial phase was characterized by a coarsening of the pigment pattern of the fundus. In addition to fluorescein angiography the degree of transitory hyperopia was an excellent indicator of the activity of the disease process.
