Paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) is a rare disease affecting middle layers of the central retina that is seen as a focal hyperreflective band-like lesion on optical coherence tomography. Paracentral acute middle maculopathy is associated mainly with vascular diseases. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings confirm the ischemic nature of paracentral acute middle maculopathy.

Keywords:

paracentral acute middle maculopathy
