- Description
- This 28-year-old man had inactive toxoplasmosis and presented with acute symptoms caused by this tractional retinal tear adjacent to a retinochorodial scar. He also had an acute posterior vitreous detachment which had torn this retinal operculum completely free. The next slide shows the same lesion. Note the early rolled edge on the left side of the tear.
