The retinal spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) findings of two posterior microphthalmia cases are presented in\udthis case report. For this purpose, the findings of two siblings aged five and seven years who presented to our clinic with the complain\udof far-sightedness and high hypermetropia were evaluated. Both cases diagnosed to have posterior microphthalmia demonstrated normal\udbiomicroscopic anterior segment examination and gonioscopy findings and the axial lengths were measured to be shorter than 17mm.\udThe SD-OCT analysis of papillomacular folds detected in fundus examination revealed contribution of only neurosensorial retina.\udBeneath the retinal fold, we observed bilateral cysts in the intraretinal area in one of the cases and a triangle-shaped hyporeflective space\udwith an apex corresponding to that of the retinal fold in the subretinal area in both cases.\udSD-OCT is an adjunctive imaging tool for diagnosis and follow-up of degenerative changes in posterior microphthalmia. These changes\udmay be also important for visual prognosis. (Turk J Ophthalmol 2014; 44: 240-2
