Abstract
The authors present two cases of coxsackie retinopathy that presented with the classic findings of acute outer retinal disruption that evolved to an outer retinal scar. In these two cases, the classic lesions displayed an extramacular distribution. The authors provide detailed multimodal imaging in both cases highlighting the nature of the lesions. It is important to consider coxsackie virus infection in the differential diagnosis of extramacular lesions with outer retinal disruption. The term “unilateral acute idiopathic maculopathy” should be replaced with “coxsackie retinopathy” to better align with the expanded clinical spectrum and the known etiology of this disorder.
