Eclipse Solar Retinopathy: A Case Report

Solar retinopathy is a rare clinical disturbance, for which spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) findings are not always consistent. This study reports on one case affected by a solar eclipse and discusses its differential diagnosis. Methods: In 2019, A 30-year-old male was referred to an ophthalmology clinic for sudden blurred vision. Visual acuity was 20/100 in Right eye, and 20/50 in left eye. When measuring intraocular pressure, it was 18 in both eyes. Anterior segment the examination was unremarkable in each eye. The foveal reflex was reduced on dilated fundus examination, and Dull Pigment Macula OD was reduced. Within normal limits in OS. Maculopathy "Solar Retinopathy in OD", Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) in OD. Conclusions: Solar retinopathy has a subtle presentation and leads to ocular diseases such as cataracts, and posterior vitreous detachment, SD-OCT, and fundus examination are useful tools for its diagnosis.
