VILA DOPICO, Ileana et al. Serous macular detachment associated to optic disc pits treated with photocoagulation. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2018, vol.31, n.1, pp. 153-160. ISSN 1561-3070.

ABSTRACT Congenital optic disc pits are an infrequent condition typically characterized by unilateral oval grayish-white papillary depressions. A case report is presented of this condition associated to serous detachment treated with photocoagulation. A descriptive study was conducted of a 14-year-old female patient who reported loss of vision in her left eye with a month of evolution. Laser photocoagulation was performed on the temporal juxtapapillary edge of the pit, with evolution checks at 3, 6, 9, 12 and 24 months by optical coherence tomography, best corrected visual acuity and ophthalmoscopy. Progressive macular detachment reduction and visual acuity improvement were observed since the first control. At 9 months optical coherence tomography showed a normal macular architecture and visual acuity improvement to 20/25 (95 VAR) with identical results at 12 and 24 months. Photocoagulation therapy may be efficient, simple, minimally invasive and economical for maculopathy associated to optic disc pits.
