BACKGROUND Choroidal coloboma, especially with optic disc involvement affects the blood vessel (BV) pattern in the fundus. AIM The aim of this study was to report the observations on the pattern of retinal BVs in eyes with fundus coloboma. DESIGN Retrospective observational study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty four eyes of 19 patients with fundus coloboma and the disc involvement in the co...

PURPOSE Congenital uveal colobomas, including inferior iris and choroidal colobomas, are associated with microcornea and microphthalmia and often show left-right differences (laterality). The purpose of this study was to report a case of choroidal coloboma associated with left-right differences in diabetic retinopathy (DR). CASE This study reports a 59-year-old male with bilateral iris and ch...

PURPOSE To report the chorioretinal coloboma, and its association with increased risk of retinal detachment (RD) and choroidal neovascularization (CNV). METHODS This retrospective case series included eyes with chorioretinal coloboma diagnosed between 1995 and 2014 with a focus on RD and CNV as related complications. Cases of CNV were managed with laser photocoagulation or intravitreal inject...

We report a case of recurrent choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in an eye with chorioretinal coloboma. A 36-year-old woman presented complaining of decreased visual acuity (VA) in her left eye. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/200 and iris coloboma was observed. Funduscopy and fluorescein angiography (FA) showed CNV in the superior extrafoveal region with chorioretinal coloboma reach...

Ocular coloboma is a rare malformation which occurs as an isolated defect in healthy individuals or be part of complex syndrome known unknown etiology. Patients with iris and choroid complicated cataract should have surgery to improve their BCVA, if there no retinal detachment.We report the case right eye male following consultation.The patient had inferonasal iris, resulted pear-shaped pupil l...

Achondroplasia is a congenital disorder resulting from a specific disturbance in endochondral bone formation. The ophthalmic features reportedly associated with achondroplasia are telecanthus, exotropia, inferior oblique overaction, angle anomalies and cone-rod dystrophy. This is first report of chorioretinal coloboma in achondroplasia. An 8-year-old female was diagnosed with a developmental de...
