  • Title: Recurrent Macular Detachment Due to Occult Retinal Break in a Patient With Optic Disc Pit.
    Author: Chen X, Miller JB, Eliott D.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina; 2017 May 01; 48(5):432-434. PubMed ID: 28499056.
    Abstract:
    Serous macular detachment occurs in nearly 50% of eyes with optic disc pit. These macular detachments have been historically difficult to treat. The authors report a case of macular retinal detachment due to an occult juxtapapillary retinal break in a patient with optic disc pit refractory to prior treatments. This case demonstrates that a presumed serous detachment associated with an optic disc pit may have a rhegmatogenous etiology. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2017;48:432-434.].
