Purpose: To report a case of a full-thickness macular hole after exposure to an extremely powerful handheld laser pointer.

Methods: A 14-year-old boy with a laser-induced full-thickness macular hole was evaluated 1 month after a momentary exposure to a 5,000 mW blue laser pointer. Imaging modalities including fundus color, autofluorescence, and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, acquired both at our clinic and by the referring physician soon after the injury, are used to describe the clinical evolution of the case.
