Özet

In this paper, we present an unusual case of bilateral optic pit maculopathy. Optic disc pits occur in less than 1 in 10000 and are bilateral in 10% to 15% of cases. Approximately 50% of cases with congenital optic disc pits are associated with serous macular detachment. Long-standing serous detachments are usually associated with cystic degeneration of macula and pigment loss from the underlying retinal pigment epithelium. Hence, most eyes with serous macular detachment associated with an optic disc pit have a relatively poor visual prognosis. Here, we emphasized the clinical importance of assessment of bilateral optic disc pit.
