- Description
- 66-year-old white male without history of tuberous sclerosis was found to have an incidental, asymptomatic, translucent, retinal lesion with a few small telangiectatic vessels within it. The FA showed early hyperFL of these small vessels with prominent late leakage/staining. The OCT showed a retinal mass with a "moth eaten" appearance. Vision was 20/20 and the rest of the exam was unremarkable.
