Abstract:
Recently, we have experienced case of juxtapapillary retinal angioma. This patient was a 32-year-old Korean woman who visited our hospital because of blurred vision in her left eye for about 20 days. At the time of examination, the visual acuity of this eye was 0.3. Ophthalmoscopic examination revealed a sherical, highly vascularized tumor at the temporal margin of the optic papilla and peripapillary retinal exudates. This case was presented with a brief review of the literature.
