    Author: Drača N, Cerovski B, Lazić R, Kovačević D, Gabrić K, Gabrić I.
    Journal: Case Rep Ophthalmol; 2020; 11(2):395-401. PubMed ID: 32999667.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) changes in the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) in a patient that had suffered Berlin's edema after a whiplash neck injury. The patient reported central scotoma throughout the 1-year follow-up, confirmed by visual field examination. OCTA showed FAZ enlargement of the left eye as compared to the healthy right eye in the superficial capillary layer and even more in the deep capillary layer. To the best of our knowledge, FAZ enlargement has not been previously described by OCTA after whiplash-related macular injury.
