Enhanced visualisation of acute macular neuroretinopathy by spectral imaging.
OBJECTIVE
To report photographic findings from a case of acute macular neuroretinopathy.


METHODS
Fundus photography on color transparencies, red-free digital CCD-recording, and laser-scanning ophthalmoscopy with monochromatic red and blue illumination.


RESULTS
The visibility of the retinal lesions was markedly enhanced by narrowing the illumination bandwidth and by the stray light suppression of the confocal laser scanning ophthalmoscope.


CONCLUSIONS
The diagnosis of acute macular neuroretinopathy, and possibly other chorioretinal diseases as well, can be facilitated by multispectral imaging and stray-light reduction optics.
