Risk Factors Continued 

 

There have been case reports of PAMM lesions seen in other conditions seen below.

  • Inflammatory Disorders
    • Retinal vasculitis, birdshot chorioretionopathy, GCA
  • Medications:
    • Sympathomimetics
      • Epinephrine, caffeine
    • Contraceptives
  • Migraines
  • Glaucoma: particularly acute angle closure
  • Post surgery: CEIOL, PPV
  • Viral or post vaccine

It’s hypothesized that in these cases there is an acute ischemic event leading to the development of PAMM lesions.
