CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 28-year old woman suffering loss of visual acuity in her left eye, who presented an image suggestive of a subretinal neovascular membrane in her left eye, and bilateral retinal lesions compatible with punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC). She was treated with intravitreal ranibizumab obtaining excellent results. DISCUSSION: The differential diagnosis must be made between PIC and the rest of "white dot syndromes" and the presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS). Antiangiogenic drugs may be a good alternative for the treatment of such diseases when they develop a subretinal neovascular membrane.
