Fig. 1 Clinical presentation and course of patient 2. A, Fundus photograph of the right eye at presentation showing intraretinal hemorrhage in the foveal region. B, Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) showing a hyperreflective lesion affecting the ganglion and inner plexiform layers. C, Right eye fundus photograph at 3 weeks showing complete resolution of the hemorrhage with a dull foveal reflex. D, SD-OCT at 6 months showing intact retinal layers.

Fig. 2 Clinical presentation and course of patient 3. A, Left eye fundus photograph at presentation showing a localized subfoveal hemorrhage associated with subretinal fluid. B, Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) at presentation showing a subfoveal hyperreflective lesion along with adjacent hyporeflectivity. C and D, Left eye fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) showing early hyperfluorescence with leakage in the late phase suggestive of a choroidal neovascular membrane. E, Fundus photograph 1 month after intravitreal bevacizumab injection showing complete resolution of the hemorrhage and subretinal fluid with small retinal pigment epithelium detachment. F, Macular SD-OCT 1 month after injection showing a small pigment epithelial detachment.

B, Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) at presentation depicting a subfoveal hyperreflective lesion along with adjacent hyporeflectivity. C, Left eye fundus photograph 1 month after intravitreal bevacizumab injection showing complete resolution of the hemorrhage and subretinal fluid. D, Macular SD-OCT 3 months after intravitreal injection showing a very small pigment epithelial detachment.
