PURPOSE: To describe the angiographic signs found using scanning laser ophthalmoscopy for the early diagnosis of vitreoretinal interface syndrome. This method is useful to visualize the inner retinal layers, being more sensitive than fundus biomicroscopy. MATERIAL: 61 patients with vitreoretinal interfase syndrome were evaluated. All of them had evidence of this disease using scanning laser ophthalmoscopy but four patients were referred without diagnosis of vitreoretinal interfase syndrome. These patients showed no biomicroscopic signs and diagnosis was made with SLO. METHODS: Confocal scanning infrared laser ophthalmoscope (Heidelberg Retinal Angiograph assembled by Heidelberg Engineering). This SLO uses an infrared diode laser source of 795 nm. CONCLUSION: Patients included were referred with another diagnosis and with this method the correct diagnosis was made. In conclusion scanning laser ophthalmoscopy allows early diagnosis of this pathology for follow-up and treatment.
