Colour fundus photograph (Optos, Scotland) of the left eye showing inferotemporal retinoschisis detachment. Of note is the dome-shaped contour with clear demarcation at the posterior extent.

(A) Optical coherence tomography (OCT; Topcon Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) of the retinoschisis detachment area showing break in the outer leaf of retinoschisis resulting in some extension of fluid into the subretinal space resulting in retinoschisis detachment. (B) Follow-up OCT 6 months after presentation showing no posterior progression in the extent of retinoschisis detachment. The circular inlay images show the plane of the OCT line scan. NB: Neither inner leaf breaks nor posterior vitreous detachment were seen clinically or on OCT.
