Optical coherence tomography of fundus findings in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis

Sir,

Ocular involvement in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis (MCGN) has been well described in literature.^{1, 2, 3, 4} It is characterized by the presence of electron dense deposits in the choriocapillaris and the Bruch's membrane.^{1, 2} Clinically, these deposits are seen as yellow discrete drusen-like lesions with atrophy of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). These patients usually have no visual symptoms. However, visual loss may occur infrequently as a result of development of a choroidal neovascular membrane or central serous chorioretinopathy.^{3, 4}
