SCREAM MACULOPATHY

Originally posted on @retina.rocks 01/01/2021

This 18YO patient presented in August 2019 (over 6 months before the COVID epidemic rocked our world) with these unusual idiopathic asymptomatic macular findings.

But isn’t it prescient that his macula eerily revealed a strikingly natural rendition of Edvard Munch’s 1893 ‘The Scream of Nature’?

If only we could have recognized what his macula was literally screaming out to us, we could have alerted the authorities and maybe things would have turned out differently for all of us.
