Visual loss due to macular folds. Colour photograph of the left fundus of a patient (patient no 8, Table 3) who developed papilloedema and choroidal folds as a result of benign intracranial hypertension. A heavily pigmented choroidal fold, which can be seen passing through the fovea, is responsible for permanent visual impairment. Visual acuity in the left eye is 2/60, and the patient describes severe left metamorphopsia.
