Acute zonal occult outer retinopathy affecting the peripheral retina with centripetal progression

Conclusion: A variant of AZOOR may involve the peripheral retina, causing concentric zonal atrophy with centripetal progression, with central peripapillary zonal abnormalities that have centrifugal progression. This may eventually lead to widespread atrophic degeneration with severe visual field loss. Wide-field imaging of the peripheral retina and monitoring of the visual fields are important to document this rare atypical presentation of AZOOR and any subsequent disease progression.
