Description

Inferior temporal retinoschisis extending posteriorly to arcade. The vertical cut shows more severe splitting inferiorly, with visibly attached outer layer. The “inverted V” shape of the inner layer on the left of the image is artifact, due to OCT-algorithm related inversion as this layer extends towards the vitreous.
