Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy.
A 21-year-old man developed blurred vision and retinal pigment epithelium changes similar to those in acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy following vaccination for swine flu. The patient's medical examination revealed no infectious agents. A hypersensitivity to the attenuated virus of the swine flu vaccine appears to have produced his initial flu-like symptoms and retinal pigment epithelium changes.
