MOLINA CISNEROS, Ceija; GONZALEZ RODRIGUEZ, Liudmira  y  PEREZ PANEQUE, Félix. Myopic foveoschisis associated with Straatsma’s syndrome. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2019, vol.32, n.2, e743.  Epub 30-Sep-2019. ISSN 0864-2176.

This case report describes the concomitant presentation of myopic foveoschisis and myelinated retinal nerve fibers in a patient with elevated myopia. The myopic foveoschisis may be an incidental but not uncommon finding in highly myopic eyes, leading to severe central vision loss. Myelinated retinal nerve fibers are infrequent and in rarely cases they are associated with ipsilateral myopia and strabismus. Both entities should be including as differential diagnosis of central vision loss in high myopia, and optic coherence tomography is the leading as auxiliary test.

Palabras clave : Myopic foveoschisis; myelinated retinal nerve fibers; Straatsma’s syndrome; optical coherence tomography.
