Paracentral Acute Middle Maculopathy and Acute Macular Neuroretinopathy: Related and Distinct Entities.

Type 1 acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN), also known as paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM), is a novel form of AMN in which spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) demonstrates a characteristic hyper-reflective band-like lesion at the level of the inner nuclear layer. This form of AMN has only recently been described in five patients who were predominantly older men wi...
