Two patients had protracted blind spot enlargement, photopsia, and no optic
disc edema. Both had fundus and fluorescein angiographic findings typical
of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome that resolved within several
weeks, leaving a persistent enlarged blind spot and photopsia. These
clinical findings and an analysis of the literature data suggest that acute
idiopathic blind spot enlargement without optic disc edema may be a subset
of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome.
