N2  - AIM: In this paper, we will try to highlight the importance of various investigations and their crucial role in identifying whether the defect is structural or functional. CASE HISTORY: A 24-year-old woman presented with ocular complications after bungee jumping. Subsequently, although all ophthalmic signs resolved, she complained of decreased vision in her left eye. CONCLUSION: Initial ophthalmic injury was detected by optical coherence tomography scan showing a neurosensory detachment of the fovea. This was not initially detected on slit-lamp examination or fluorescein angiography. On later examination, although the optical coherence tomography scan showed no structural damage, electrodiagnostic tests showed a functional defect at the fovea.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
