Abstract

Purpose: This work describes a case of multiple evanescent white-dot syndrome (MEWDS) in a 9-year-old girl. Methods: A case report is presented. Results: A case of MEWDS in a 9-year-old girl is described. Conclusions: To our knowledge this is the youngest presentation of MEWDS discussed in the literature. MEWDS should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ocular inflammation in the first decade of life.
