title: Optical coherence tomography findings in solar retinopathy.
abstract: Solar retinopathy is characterized by involvement of the outer retinal layers. Optical coherence tomography may help delineate the retinal injury site in vivo. Optical coherence tomography was performed in three eyes of two patients with solar retinopathy. All three eyes demonstrated a characteristic excavation in the outer hyperreflective layer corresponding to the retinal complex.
