Retinal telangiectasia associated with optic disk pit maculopathy

Conclusion:

Retinal telangiectasia seen in optic disk maculopathy may be secondary to ischemia induced by the intense stretching of the superficial vascular plexus in the inner retina because of macular edema. In our patient, when traction was relieved following surgical intervention, there was remodeling of the superficial vascular plexus that allowed for resolution of the retinal telangiectasia.
