Abstract

An 8-year-old male patient was presented with a chief complaint of visual perception of a spherical object located in the visual field of his right eye. According to the patient’s prior medical records, they exhibited a sole incident of minor visual impairment in the right eye, characterized by blurred vision (best-corrected visual acuity: 8/10), which first manifested during preschool assessments at the age of 5 years. During the fundoscopic examination of the patient, a pigmented, lobulated, and mobile vitreous cyst was observed in the right eye, whereas the examination of the patient’s left eye revealed no abnormalities. A video of a smartphone slit-lamp imaging was also captured to facilitate subsequent examinations and patient follow-up. © The Author(s) 2024.
