Clinical profile and surgical outcomes in children with posterior lenticonus.

Aims: The purpose of this study is to describe the clinical profile of children presenting with posterior lenticonus. We also report on visual outcomes following surgery in these patients.

Subjects And Methods: Medical records of patients with a diagnosis of posterior lenticonus between January 2000 and December 2016 were reviewed.

Rare association of optic disk pits with myelinated retinal nerves.

We report the case of a 9-year-old girl who presented for a routine change of glasses. On slit-lamp examination, no abnormality was detected; however, dilated fundus examination revealed profuse myelination of the retinal nerves around the disk of the right eye along with an optic disk pit inferotemporally. The left eye fundus also had an optic disk pit inferotemporally but no associated myelination.
