Choroidal osteoma is a rare benign tumor which is found in the posterior pole of the eye. We herein describe multimodal imaging in two cases of choroidal osteoma. Fundus of our first case showed a yellowish-orange colored subretinal lesion at the posterior pole. Multicolor imaging highlighted the lesion with greenish hue. Infrared reflectance showed hyporeflectance. A dense echogenic plaque persisting in lower gain was noted on B-scan. FFA showed hyperfluorescence with corresponding hypocyanescence on ICG. EDI OCT showed an increase in choroidal thickness with elevated retinal pigment epithelium. The second case showed choroidal osteoma with active choroidal neovascular membrane that responded to intravitreal injection of Ranibizumab.

The aim of the study was todescribe the clinical features, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging in patients with choroidal and retinal tumors. Ninety eyes of 89 patients with treatment-naive macular, midperipheral, and juxtapapillary choroidal and retinal tumors were retrospectively included in the study. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmic examination, B-mode ultrasonography, OCT, and FAF imaging.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined 80 Indian patients with choroidal osteoma, focusing on demographic and clinical characteristics as well as treatment outcomes.
- Most patients were female (61%), with the majority in their second decade of life; various associated complications like choroidal neovascularization (CNV) were noted in 40% of eyes.
- Treatment methods included anti-VEGF therapy for CNV and other procedures, with mean best corrected visual acuity improving slightly over a follow-up period, indicating the need for ongoing monitoring despite the generally benign nature of the condition.

Choroidal osteoma is a rare, benign, osseous choristoma presenting as an orange-yellow, well-defined fundus mass. It presents unilaterally in most cases, has a predilection for the female sex, and favor a juxtapapillary location, becoming clinically manifest when it involves the macula. Almost 60% of eyes with osteoma may suffer significant visual loss.
