Abstract

Cherry red spot is a known sign of retinal occlusive disease. However, when it occurs bilaterally in a young patient with neurological findings, a diagnosis of retinal occlusive disease becomes farfetched, and the possibility of a storage disorder is raised. We report multimodal retinal imaging findings in a case of cherry-red spot myoclonus syndrome. This form of imaging helps in the ophthalmological diagnosis and management of these patients. © 2020 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
