- Description
- This lattice lesion in a 30- year-old woman also shows combined features with a reddish crater above and a parallel snailtrack appearance just below it. Please note especially another interesting feature. From the left end of the lesion, there is a faint thin yellow line slanting down toward the right just below the shadow of the scleral indentation. This line identifies the dome of the pocket of liquified vitreous which is present over every lesion of lattice degeneration.
