title: Coats' disease.
abstract: A 3-year-old boy had leukocoria in his right eye that could have been confused for retinoblastoma because leukocoria is the most common presenting sign of retinoblastoma. Educating parents, nurse practitioners, pediatricians, and fellow health care professionals about such presenting ocular signs will help expedite ophthalmic examinations and accurate diagnosis for these children.
