Abstract

Optic disc pit (ODP) can be either congenital or acquired. Congenital ODP is typically unilateral, and the visual acuity and visual field are normal unless associated with macular serous detachment, which occurs in about 25-75% of cases. Acquired ODP is known as an important risk factor for progressive visual field loss in glaucoma. The fundus finding of congenital ODP includes oval depression involving the optic disc, with or without macular serous detachment. We used third-generation Stratus optical coherence tomography (Straus OCT) to investigate the possible pathogenesis of ODP associated with maculopathy and to monitor the anatomic changes before and after treatment.
