A Case of Multiple Optic Disc Pits: 21-Year Follow-up
Journal Title: Turkish Journal of Ophthalmology - Year 2021, Vol 51, Issue 2
Abstract
Optic disc pits (ODP) are an uncommon congenital abnormality. Patients remain asymptomatic unless they develop maculopathy. The use of optic coherence tomography has critical benefits in the follow-up of patients who are at the amblyogenic age. The aim of this study is to present a case of double ODP in the right eye and single ODP in the left eye in a partially accommodative esotropia patient followed for 21 years. To our knowledge, multiple ODP has never been described in a patient with partially accommodative esotropia.
