Acute retinal pigment epitheliitis is a rare idiopathic inflammatory disease of the retina that occurs most often in young healthy patients. The article presents three clinical cases with the results of dynamic observations.
Keywords: acute retinal pigment epitheliitis, pigment epithelium, Krill’s disease, optical coherence tomography.
