Objective:

To evaluate a case of submacular hemorrhage in a patient with nonexudative age-related macular degeneration and rule out a choroidal mass, while noting the eventual diagnosis of exudative AMD.

Key Findings:

• The imaging revealed only subretinal hemorrhage with a large retinal pigment epithelial detachment.
• No evidence of internal circulation or vascular abnormalities indicative of a choroidal tumor was found.
• The diagnosis confirmed exudative AMD with active choroidal neovascularization.

Interpretation:

The multimodal imaging approach facilitated a quick and accurate diagnosis, confirming exudative AMD with active choroidal neovascularization.

Limitations:

• The case highlights the challenges of imaging through hemorrhaging and media opacity.
• Traditional ultrasound requires specialized resources and patient cooperation, often making it less efficient than newer imaging techniques.

Conclusion:

The use of Silverstone RGB and SS-OCT technology improved diagnostic efficiency and altered the clinical management of the patient.
