ABSTRACT
Foveal hypoplasia is the absence of a foveal depression and the presence of the ganglion cell layer in the foveola. A spectrum of clinical characteristics, including normal or variably decreased visual acuity, has been described in patients with blunted foveal contours. Multiple systemic and ophthalmologic conditions including albinism, aniridia, nanophthalmos, prematurity, and fovea plana have been associated with this anomaly. This article illustrates select clinical conditions characterized by a blunted foveal contour. Given the heterogeneity of findings, a thorough medical history and detailed physical and ocular examinations are usually sufficient for the clinician to make the correct diagnosis.
