  • Title: [Photic maculopathy by low energy laser beam. A case report].
    Author: Chen TL, Yang KR, Chen SM.
    Journal: Changgeng Yi Xue Za Zhi; 1991 Dec; 14(4):273-7. PubMed ID: 1797372.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of photic maculopathy that developed in a 30-year-old laboratory worker after repeated, consecutive exposure to low energy He-Ne laser. Pigmented foveal change and a small central scotoma in the right eye with window defect on fluorescein angiography characterized this maculopathy. Photochemical damage is considered to be the cause of the maculopathy.
