Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The term «poppers» refers to products made of volatile alkyl nitrites used for recreational practices. CLINICAL CASE: 40 year old man reported blurred vision in both eyes and photophobia, and admitted regular use of «poppers». Best corrected visual acuity was 0.63/1 in both eyes. Bilateral yellowish vitelliform macular lesions were present in both eyes in the funduscopy, as well as a disruption of the IS/OS line in the optical coherence tomography. DISCUSSION: This is the first case of «poppers maculopathy» registered in Spain. Clinical findings and symptoms are similar to previous reported cases.Entities:
