    Abstract:
    This photo essay shows the retinal findings in a patient with presumed syphilitic disc edema and periphlebitis. Resolution of these findings after treatment with penicillin is documented by improvement in visual acuity from 20/50 to 20/25 in the right eye and from 20/200 to 2/20 in the left eye. Photographic documentation of the resolution of retinal findings, including disc edema and periphlebitis, is presented.
