To report the presence of bacillary layer detachment (BLD) in unilateral acute idiopathic maculopathy (UAIM).
Two patients diagnosed with UAIM based on the clinical and imaging features showed the characteristic splitting of the ellipsoid layer on spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT). This has been termed as bacillary layer detachment.
No treatment was given. In both cases, there was a complete spontaneous resolution of the SDOCT findings 14-days post-presentation in Case 1 and 5-days post-presentation in Case 2 with improvement in visual acuity to 20/20, N6 in both cases.
BLD in UAIM is not a commonly reported SDOCT finding and can serve as an imaging biomarker.
报告单侧急性特发性黄斑病变（UAIM）中存在杆菌层分离（BLD）的情况。
两名根据临床和影像学特征诊断为 UAIM 的患者在光谱域光学相干断层扫描（SDOCT）上显示出典型的椭圆体层分离。这种情况被称为杆菌层分离。
未进行任何治疗。在两种情况下，SDOCT 结果在第 1 例表现后 14 天和第 2 例表现后 5 天完全自发缓解，视力分别提高到 20/20 和 N6。
UAIM 中的 BLD 不是常见的 SDOCT 发现，可以作为一种成像生物标志物。
