A case of rubella retinopathy associated with macular scarring from subretinal neovascularization is presented. Ophthalmoscopic findings included diffuse mottling of the retinal pigment epithelium throughout the macula and into the postequatorial areas, atrophic "rings" around both optic discs, and a solid white and slightly raised macular cicatrix in the right eye. The patient has been followed for three years; her visual acuity remains at 20/20 and there has been no change in the appearance of her retinae. Rubella retinopathy should be considered in the differential diagnosis of young patients with subretinal neovascularization.
