Blue light autofluorescence (AF), fluorescein angiography (FA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) for right (right column) and left eyes (left column). AF (A) shows bilateral temporal wedge-shaped area of hyperautofluorescence and focal areas of lack of fluorescence temporal to the fovea typical of MacTel type 2, as supported by FA (B) findings showing temporal telangiectatic vessels in early phases with diffuse hyperfluorescence in the late phases. In addition, FA showed bilateral areas of non-perfusion, microaneurysms, and early leakage from an area in the superotemporal vascular arcade on the right eye, and an area inferotemporal to the vascular arcade on the left eye compatible with PDR. OCT at time of PDR detection (C) with outer retinal ellipsoid zone dehiscence and outer retinal degeneration temporal to the fovea in both eyes, left early cystoid space, and left temporal area of hyperreflectivity in the outer retina
