This is a fresh, symptomatic horseshoe tear at the site of a cystic retinal tuft in a 63-year-old man. This is really a double horseshoe tear because the two retinal vessels have resisted the vitreal retinal traction and have preserved an intact bridge of tissue between the tears. Note the prominent vitreous condensation attached to the apex of the upper tear and made much more visible because it is seen superimposed over the dark underlying shadow of scleral indentation.

Condition/keywords: bridge of tissue between tears, cystic retinal tuft, scleral indentation, vitreous condensation

The next three photographs will illustrate retinal conditions that can easily be mistaken for retinal breaks. For a fourth example of a pseudo retinal break, see slide pair 35. It is important to distinguish these conditions from true retinal breaks. This 49-year-old man was found to have this crescent shaped reddish lesion with a sharp yellow posterior border but without any visible elevated retinal flap. The two blood vessels which traversed this lesion in the presence of a flat retina proved that the retina is intact. This confusing appearance is caused by the presence of white with pressure both behind and in front of the reddish area causing it to resemble a retinal break.

Condition/keywords: pseudo retinal break, reddish lesion, retinal flap, traversing retinal vessels, white with pressure

A 32-year-old woman with a history of drug abuse was admitted due to acute manifestation of multiple infarcts, including acute stroke, splenic and renal infarcts, and multiple cutaneous hematomas. Due to decreased vision in her left eye the patient was referred for ophthalmic evaluation. On exam, visual acuity was 6/10 in the right eye and no light perception in her left eye. Ophthalmoscopic examination was normal in the right eye but showed pallor of the optic nerve head with attenuated retinal vessels in the left eye. Fluorescein angiography showed an oval area of hyperfluorescence from from non-perfusion involving the macular center with staining of overlying retinal capillaries.

Acuity OD of 20/800 and OS 20/20. Manifest refraction shows anisometropia: OD +6.50 and OS + 0.75 spheres. The macula of the right eye has a dense fibrotic cicatricial subfoveal scar with mottling of pigment epithelium in the perifoveal area. There is a bridging fibrotic band that extends in the 10 o'clock meridian to the posterior equator tenting up retinal vessels between the two areas. The fluorescein angiogram done has the frames 20-25 reversed on the positive so that they are all of the right eye. The remainder are correctly oriented and show a subfoveal neovascular membrane with surrounding serous fluid overlying residual exudate. There is the fibrotic band that can be seen in the 10:00 o'clock meridian in the late photographs where retinal vessels under traction from the subretinal band leak somewhat.

Condition/keywords: bridging fibrotic band, subfoveal neovascular membrane, supertemporal equator
