Abstract

Assessing the visual capabilities that remain to children affected with bilateral retinoblastoma has relied on psychophysical tests based on recognition visual acuity. We report a case in which fundus-driven perimetry and swept-source optical coherence tomography was performed in a patient with a macular tumor in the remaining eye as a novel way of further assessing fixation after oncological disease and treatment.
