Optos California - Description
- Ultra-widefield fundus photograph of a 76 year old woman with vitreoretinal traction, an adjacent retinal tear and vitreous hemorrhage affecting the left eye. Patient was referred for retinal detachment and vitreous hemorrhage. Patient reports waking up the day prior to their appointment with "a lot of lines coming down the front, like swirling dirt in the left eye". Patient's vision was counting fingers at 1 ft. Dr. Joseph Boss noticed a horseshoe tear inferior to traction on exam and with the help of ultra-widefield imaging. Dr. Boss performed laser retinopexy to tear and impending tear at site of traction. Patient is scheduled for pars plana vitrectomy for dense vitreous hemorrhage.
