Ocular manifestations of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
We report a case of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) with severe peripheral chorioretinal pigment changes in addition to the more typical pigment clumping in the macula. The differential diagnosis of peripheral inactive chorioretinitis, the typical ocular findings, and clinical course of SSPE are discussed.
