BACKGROUND Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disease caused by loss of expression of the paternally inherited copy of several genes on the long arm of chromosome 15. Ophthalmic manifestations of PWS include strabismus, amblyopia, nystagmus, hypopigmentation of the iris and choroid, diabetic retinopathy, cataract and congenital ectropion uvea. An overlap between PWS and oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) has long been recognized and attributed to deletion of OCA2 gene located in PWS critical region (PWCR). METHODS A 30-year-old male patient with PWS presented with vision loss in his left eye. His right eye had normal visual acuity. Multimodal imaging revealed absence of a foveal depression and extremely reduced diameter of the foveal avascular zone in the right eye and an inactive type 2 macular neovascular lesion in the left eye. CONCLUSIONS We report a presumed association of fovea plana and choroidal neovascularization with PWS. The use of multimodal imaging revealed novel findings in a PWS patient that might enrich our current understanding of the overlap between PWS and OCA.
