Figure 3 Optical coherence tomography images obtained 2 days, 2 weeks, and 3 months after injury(A) Optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination performed 2 days after the accident shows edema of the inner and middle retinal layers (yellow star) and the presence of subretinal fluid (red arrow). (B) OCT performed 2 weeks after the accident shows a slight reduction in retinal thickness, as confirmed by the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study retinal thickness map.
