ABSTRACT
Congenital retinal folds represents an extremly rare ocular fondus condition characterized by fibrous-like membranes localized between the optic disc and the cilliary region in the inferotemporal portion of the eye. In case of a bilateral outcome they tend to be symetric and they are in association to an incomplete regression of the hyaloid artery during the embryologic period. It is also common an association of the congenital retinal fold with an extense tent-like complete retinal detachment.
The current paper describes three different cases of subjects having congenital retinal folds in association with secondary strabismus. Clinical and embriologic ethiological considerations are mentioned in order to identify and differentiate them from other fundus retinal pathology with different therapeutic approaches.
