We report the
case of a 12-year-old boy with fovea plana discovered on a systematic work-up. His best-corrected visual acuity was limited to 20/25 in both eyes. Anterior segment examination showed no evidence of iris transillumination or aniridia. Macular OCT revealed persistence of the inner nuclear layers in the foveolar area and an absence of foveal pits, suggesting a diagnosis of fovea plana. Fluorescein angiography revealed that the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) was absent. OCT angiography revealed persistence of the superficial and deep capillary plexi. Our
case confirms that OCT angiography affords additional insights into macular exploration and the diagnosis of fovea plana by revealing absence of the foveal pit associated with persistence of both superficial and deep capillary plexi in the foveal area.
