SMACH appears to be a unilateral choroidopathy characterized by distinctive multimodal imaging features. As SRF was absent in some cases, while a dendriform pattern was a consistent finding in all eyes, we propose renaming this entity "stellate multiform amelanotic choroidopathy", a name which retains its prior abbreviation "SMACH".
