| description | Spontaneously regressing retinoblastoma is a retinal lesion consisting of one or moregray, translucent retinal masses, calcified nodules and retinal pigment migration and clumping in adjacent areas. Female child of 7 years presenting with esotropia LE was referred from pediatric Ophthalmology department to Vitreo-Retinal clinic of Sarojini Devi Eye Hospital, Hyderabad for fundus evaluation. Vision in RE is 6/6. LE –Perception of light positive, PR inaccurate in all quadrants. RE anterior segment examination is unremarkable and in LE – relative afferent pupillary defect. On fundus examination, RE – Normal, LE – Large circumscribed excavated area temporal to optic disc noticed. Spontaneously regressed retinoblastoma carries the same genetic implication as an active retinoblastoma. |
