Peripapillary retinoschisis is a rare finding that may be associated with the progression of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Potential pathophysiological mechanisms have been proposed to explain this association, such as acute and chronic increase in intraocular pressure, vitreopapillary traction, and Müller cell dysfunction from optic nerve head deformation. OCT imaging has revealed hyper-reflective strut-like pillars within the schisis cavity described as “bridging structures.” While peripapillary retinoschisis may spontaneously resolve, other strategies may include lowering intraocular pressure, intraocular injections, or pars plana vitrectomy.present a patient with peripapillary retinoschisis incidentally found during a workup for primary open angle glaucoma.
