Abstract

Asymptomatic free floating vitreous cyst with macular coloboma constantly been stable for 10 years is a rarely reported case. Here, we report a case of 30-year-old male who presented to us with best corrected visual acuity of 6/12 and 6/18 in right and left eye, respectively. On slit-lamp examination anterior segment was normal. His fundus examination showed a solitary free floating cyst in the vitreous in right eye and bilateral macular coloboma. Blood tests for toxoplasmosis and cysticercosis were negative. The patient had no symptoms, so we decided to follow the patient without any treatment.
