Optic disc coloboma with pit treated as glaucoma: diagnostic utility of ultrasound and swept source optical coherence tomography

Description

A 6-year-old boy presented as a known case of developmental glaucoma and was using topical travoprost in the right eye (RE) since 1 year. Highest recorded intraocular pressure (IOP) was 24 mm Hg in RE, whereas central corneal thickness was 540 µm. Visual acuity was 6/6 in both eyes. On examination, the anterior segment of both eyes was unremarkable. IOP was 16 mm Hg in RE and 20 mm Hg in the left eye. Fundus examination of RE revealed a large and pale optic disc, with a nearly absent inferior neuroretinal rim. The origin of the inferior vascular bundle could not be deciphered, and there was a small atrophic patch inferior to the optic disc (figure 1). A suspicious cavity-like macular lesion was noted adjoining the nasal border of fovea. The fellow eye had a type 3 choroidal coloboma sparing the macula (Ida Mann classification system). Standard automated perimetry showed a large superior arcuate scotoma (
