“Doughnut appearance” of macular microcysts due to optic atrophy on optical coherence tomography angiography

Optic neuropathy may result in microcysts in the macula that can be mistaken for macular edema. Non invasive optical coherence tomography angiography can show a prominent "doughnut" appearance that helps to characterise this entity and differentiate it from macular edema.

Abstract

Optic neuropathy may result in microcysts in the macula that can be mistaken for macular edema. Non invasive optical coherence tomography angiography can show a prominent "doughnut" appearance that helps to characterise this entity and differentiate it from macular edema.
