OBJECTIVE
To present a case of idiopathic macular telangiectasia Type 1, diagnosed at early stages and its close monitoring through spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
METHODS
Case report.
RESULTS
A case is presented of a 43-year-old man with blurred vision in his right eye and no further symptoms. The patient did not have any history of ophthalmic disease. Imaging test with fluorescein angiography confirmed a diagnosis of idiopathic macular telangiectasia Type 1.
CONCLUSIONS
During a close follow-up period of 6 months, spectral domain optical coherence tomography demonstrated considerable fluctuations regarding his central retinal thickness (macular edema), presence of lipid exudates, and associated visual acuity loss.
