Ultra-widefield fundus photography of the same patient in Figure 2 before and after surgery (a and b, respectively) demonstrates hyaloid contraction as well as the typical laser pattern used for FEVR.

OCT imaging in a monocular FEVR patient who, after nearly 10 years of stability (a), developed hyaloid contraction leading to a peripapillary tractional RD (b) with a decrease in VA from 20/20 to 20/40. Following vitrectomy with membrane peel, VA returned to 20/20 and OCT normalized (c).

Multimodal imaging of the left eye in a FEVR patient with bilateral Stage 2b disease associated with a FZD4 mutation. Fundus photography (a-b) shows peripheral avascular retina with a sharp vascular-avascular junction; there is subtle leakage/exudation. Fluorescein angiography (FA)(c-d) demonstrates capillary nonperfusion, leakage, and telangiectasias. Given the above, peripheral retinal ablation using laser indirect ophthalmoscopy was performed.
