Abstract
Optic pits are congenital craterlike holes or indentation in the surface of the optic disc. They are oval in shape and located in the inferior temporal quadrant of the optic disc. The authors experienced a case of congenital optic pit of the left eye of 18 year old male-patient. Fluorescein angiography showed hypofluorescence of the pit in early arteriovenous phase, becomming hyperfluorescence in the late phase. Ophthalmoscopic view of the diseased eye showed no abnormality of macular area. There was no visual field defect except the enlarged physiologic blind spot. Here we briefly report a case of congenital optic pit. referring the literature relating to the optic pit.
