86 years old diabetic patient presented for diabetic eye examination. Only complaint was blurry vision in both eyes. Best corrected vision was 20/60 OD and OS. Cataracts were fairly consistent for degree of visual acuity. There was very mild retinal background diabetic retinopathy. Photos and an OCT (optical coherence tomography) were obtained. What stood out was vitreo-macular traction (VMT), leading to pseudomacular cyst formation in one eye. Should this just be monitored waiting on the vitreous to fully detach or should this be sent to retina for possible intervention and separate the two so a macular hole doesn’t form?](https://app.figure1.com/case-detail/35700fcf-d5fb-46a2-99cf-dcc443db51c0)

This patient initially came to me and stated he has noticed what looks like a small flash burn in his vision in his left eye.
The photo and OCT attached show the reason behind it. This is a congenital finding that usually does not present with symptoms until there is macular edema. This patient never presented with any macular edema and there's no evidence it occurred. Retina specialist was also surprised to see a patient this young with some vision loss that was caused by an optic pit without fluid.
