Abstract

A patient treated for retinoblastoma developed vitreous floaters 15 years later and was referred for recurrence with vitreous seeding. Clinical examination demonstrated a regressed scar and numerous calcified vitreous opacities with a "clear zone" on ultrasonography. The final diagnosis was asteroid hyalosis in an eye with regressed retinoblastoma. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2019;56:e41-e44.].<br /> (Copyright 2019, SLACK Incorporated.)
