Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2015 Feb;46(2):284-6. doi: 10.3928/23258160-20150213-05.

Abstract

The author reports a case of a 16-year-old boy with decreased vision secondary to optic pit maculopathy. Clinical examination revealed two distinct optic pits in the optic nerve head with macular schisis and no subretinal fluid. Follow-up examination at 1 year demonstrated stable macular schisis and vision. This case illustrates visual impairment secondary to optic pit maculopathy arising from two optic pits in a single optic nerve head.
