Abstract

The diagnostic hallmark of Coats' disease is development of "light bulb" telangiectasis in the retinal periphery, leading to posterior pole intraretinal and subretinal exudation. Even after complete obliteration of all abnormal vessels and resorption of all exudates, follow-up examinations are mandatory for several years.
