This report describes the progression of pentosan polysulphate maculopathy over almost 10 years of PPS treatment and highlights the importance of NIR as a tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of PPS maculopathy. PPS lesions present as areas of focal RPE thickening with ensuing development of EZ loss and RPE drop-out. The pathophysiology of PPS toxicity is unknown and may either result from primary RPE or choroidal toxicity.
