This is the same case as seen in the previous photograph but showing an area just below the lower end of the dialysis. It shows a congenital meridional fold at the 2 o’clock meridian with a retinal break at the posterior end possibly caused by the direct injury described previously.

This photograph and the next are two views of a very interesting elevated lesion in a 45-year-old man. This photograph shows the immense value of closely scrutinizing the profile of the indented area. Note that in the middle of the slide there is a sudden break in the continuity of the dark convex shadow that lies just behind the crest of the scleral indentation. If the elevated tissue is "filmy" or "wispy" or filamentous as in this case, it raises a strong suspicion that a retinal break is present just behind it.

Condition/keywords: elevated retinal lesion, elevated tissue, retinal break, scleral indentation

This is the same case as the previous photograph. With scleral indentation slightly more posterior, the flap is seen to be associated with a large retinal tear. This is a tractional tear and it is possible that in this case the cryotherapy itself may have increased the vitreoretinal traction at this site and in this way led to this new tear. The age of the tear is unknown because it was asymptomatic, and even though the eye is aphakic the tear has not caused a clinical retinal detachment.

Condition/keywords: retinal flap, scleral indentation, tractional retinal tear, vitreoretinal traction
