A 7-year-old female with neurocysticercosis treated with systemic antihelminthic therapy
approximately 1 year prior to presentation presented with visual distortion in the
left eye. She was off antihelminthic therapy and was slowly tapering a long oral steroid
course. Visual acuity was 20/25 in the left eye. A 2 mm consolidated intraretinal
white lesion at 1 o'clock (A, B) was seen on ultra-wide-field imaging. The lesion was hyper-reflective on spectral-domain
optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) with vitreous cells in the posterior cortical
vitreous (C, D).
