The multiple evanescent white dot syndrome is a multifocal ocular condition involving the choroid and the retina that typically affects young myopic females. It is typically unilateral and has a favorable evolution without treatment, recovering the visual function and normal structure upon several weeks since the onset of the condition. In some cases, treatment via systemic corticosteroids has been chosen, as in the case of the patient selected for the present work, in which an excellent visual and structural result was obtained much faster by using the treatment with corticosteriods. The present article presents a literature review on the current issues about this pathology and the possibilities with regard to its management.
