Abstract

We present three cases of patients aged 66, 80 and 23, who presented unilateral vision loss. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) in all of them showed macular oedema and a rounded lesion with hyperreflective wall, and fluorescein angiography (FAG) in two of them showed hyperfluorescent perifoveal aneurysmal dilations with exudation. None of the cases showed response to treatment after one year of follow-up, finally being diagnosed with Perifoveal Exudative Vascular Anomalous Complex (PEVAC).
