title: High hyperopia with papillomacular fold.
abstract: We report a case of evolutive high hyperopia in a child aged 10 years. It is associated with organic amblyopia due to a large papillomacular retinal fold. Ultrasonography and CT scan helped to establish the diagnosis. This is probably a hereditary disease affecting the development of the posterior sclera.
