Left eye of a 62-year-old man with pathological myopia and metamorphopsia (Case 1). A Fundus photograph: The eye had severe myopic retinal degeneration, such as atrophy of the choriocapillaris, choroid lacquer cracks, and retinal thinning. A well demarcated oval gray white lesion with linear retinal vessels at the base was visible inferotemporally. The pit was approximately one optic disc diameter. B OCT: A crater-like and oval-shaped depression was visible on the temporal side, approximately 30 μm from the fovea centralis. Hyperintensity was detected below the neurosensory retina, with an unknown correlation to the RPE. No neurosensory retinal detachment or neurosensory defect was detected
