AB  - AIM: To describe the clinical features and multimodal images of unilateral 
      foveomacular retinitis in young Korean soldiers. METHODS: Ten patients having 
      foveomacular retinitis were included. Fluorescein angiography, fundus 
      autofluorescence (FAF), infrared reflectance (IR), and spectral-domain optical 
      coherence tomography (SD-OCT) were analyzed. RESULTS: All patients were young 
      males experienced insidious visual decline without exposure to bright light. 
      Initial and final vision ranged from hand movement to 20/20 (median 20/200) and 
      20/2000 to 20/20 (median 20/500), respectively. Vision decreased in 6 patients 
      while improved in two. Typical macular abnormality was yellow granular spots. 
      SD-OCT showed ellipsoid zone (EZ) or interdigitation zone (IZ) disruption of 
      fovea. The degree of EZ/IZ damage correlated with vision. Lesions were clearly 
      visualized through IR and matched with SD-OCT findings. CONCLUSION: This is the 
      first case series of foveomacular retinitis diagnosed with multimodal imaging. 
      Foveomacular retinitis should be suspected in sudden unilateral visual decline 
      especially in young soldiers. SD-OCT is the most important diagnostic modality.
