Abstract
Abstract An 11-year-old boy presented to the retina outpatient clinic with a -5-year history of poor vision in the left eye. The best corrected visual acuity at presentation was 6/5 and 6/36, respectively, in the right and left eyes. Ocular examination revealed normal anterior segments in both eyes. Binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy of the right eye revealed a pink disc with a cup disc ratio (CDR) of 0.3, normal vessels while the macula had a yellowish lesion with a scrambled egg appearance and surrounding dome-shaped subretinal fluid with a flat retina and no treatable peripheral retinal lesions. The left eye had a pink disc with CDR O.3, normal vessels with a hyperpigmented lesion at the macula surrounded by a small cuff of subretinal fluid with a flat retina and no treatable peripheral retinal lesions. Optical coherence tomography scan revealed subretinal fluid in both eyes with an active choroidal neovascular membrane in the left eye. He was advised on the need for left intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injections.
