Purpose: to describe optical coherence tomography (oct) findings in a patient withberlin’s edema following blunt ocular trauma.case report: a 26-year-old man presented with acute loss of vision in his left eyefollowing blunt trauma. he underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination andoct. fundus examination revealed abnormal yellow discoloration in the macula.oct disclosed thickening of outer retinal structures and increased reflectivity in thearea of photoreceptor outer segments with preservation of inner retinal architecture.re-examination was conducted one month later at the time which oct changesresolved leading to a surprisingly normal appearance.conclusion: oct can be a useful tool in the diagnosis and follow-up of eyes withberlin’s edema and may reveal ultrastructural macular changes.
