Acute annular outer retinopathy.

Acute annular outer retinopathy is an uncommon disorder of uncertain aetiology characterized by a unilateral visual field defect with an irregular annular band of grey-white, deep retinal opacification in a peripapillary location. Acute annular outer retinopathy is considered to be a variant of acute zonal occult outer retinopathy. The case is reported of acute annular outer retinopathy with spontaneous good visual recovery and no ophthalmoscopic sequelae.
