We report the clinical findings and imaging in an 11-month-old male referred to the pediatric ocular oncology service for leukocoria. The diagnosis of concomitant myelinated nerve fibers and retinoblastoma group O/C was established. In this case, the association of these two conditions led to early diagnosis of retinoblastoma with successful treatment and good visual outcome.

The purpose is to report a case of horseshoe macular tear and its management. Case reports of a patient with blunt trauma including findings on clinical examination, color fundus photography, and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). A 23-year-old presented with a blunt ocular trauma from a plastic toy in the right eye. Fundoscopy revealed a horseshoe macular tear associated with a partial posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). OCT confirmed a full thickness macular tear with radial extension and associated retinal thickening. The patient underwent conservative management and was followed closely showing a spontaneous resolution of the macular tear. Our case report describes an example of traumatic horseshoe macular tear; we hypothesized that the PVD and the secondary inflammation as a result of the trauma were responsible for the spontaneous resolution of macular tear in our case.
