Abstract

As we all know dengue is viral infection caused by RNA virus of genus flavivirus which is transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquito. Dengue maculopathy is a rare cause of visual morbidity. We have a 30 years old male presented with gradual painless diminution of vision in his left eye for 20 days. At the time of presentation his vision was hand movement close to face. He was diagnosed case of dengue fever for which he was treated outside one month back. Fundoscopy of left eye shows multiple yellowish deposits at the fovea. Optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography was done to rule out Dengue maculopathy. The diagnosis is unusual and most cases will recover without treatment however to prevent from permanent visual damage frequent follow ups would be recommended.
