Here, we present an unusual case of large bilateral macular coloboma with dragging of optic disc. A 48-year-old diabetic male patient presented to our outpatient department with a history of diminution of vision and squint since childhood. Dilated fundus examination revealed bilateral large well-defined excavation at the macula with optic disc displaced temporally and temporal arcade vessels appeared straightened. Rest of the retina was normal. Optical coherence tomography and B-scan ultrasonography findings were consistent with macular coloboma. Association of optic disc dragging and straightened temporal retinal vessels with macular coloboma is a rare entity and aids in exclusion of other differentials.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/ojo.ojo_424_24","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,27]],"date-time":"2026-02-27T19:00:18Z","timestamp":1772218818000},"page":"140-142","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The pull of the macula: Optic disc dragging in large macular coloboma"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Sahana S.","family":"Karanth","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, AJ Institute of Medical Sciences, Mangalore, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Akansha","family":"Shetty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, AJ Institute of Medical Sciences, Mangalore, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Vaishna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, AJ Institute of Medical Sciences, Mangalore, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"348","DOI":"10.4103\/0301-4738.158090","article-title":"Bilateral macular colobomata: Temporal dragging of optic disc","volume":"63","author":"Mathew","year":"2015","journal-title":"Indian J Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R2-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"101","DOI":"10.4103\/tjosr.tjosr_153_20","article-title":"Bilateral macular coloboma viewed through multimodal imaging","volume":"59","author":"Gunderia","year":"2021","journal-title":"TNOA J Ophthalmic Sci Res"},{"key":"R3-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"321","DOI":"10.4103\/0301-4738.33061","article-title":"Optical coherence tomographic features of unilateral macular coloboma","volume":"55","author":"Hussain","year":"2007","journal-title":"Indian J Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R4-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"99","DOI":"10.1136\/bjo.11.3.99","article-title":"On certain abnormal conditions of the macular region usually classed as colobomata","volume":"11","author":"Mann","year":"1927","journal-title":"Br J Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R5-20260302","first-page":"ND04","article-title":"Bilateral congenital macular coloboma: A case report","volume":"17","author":"Nada","year":"2023","journal-title":"Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research"},{"key":"R6-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"683","DOI":"10.4103\/0301-4738.194331","article-title":"Utility of optical coherence tomography in a case of bilateral congenital macular coloboma","volume":"64","author":"Mu\u00f1oz de Escalona Rojas","year":"2016","journal-title":"Indian J Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R7-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"247","DOI":"10.4103\/ojo.ojo_83_21","article-title":"Multimodal imaging in central areolar choroidal dystrophy","volume":"15","author":"Poornachandra","year":"2022","journal-title":"Oman J Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R8-20260302","first-page":"412","article-title":"Ocular and extra-ocular features of patients with leber congenital amaurosis and mutations in CEP290","volume":"18","author":"Yzer","year":"2012","journal-title":"Mol Vis"},{"key":"R9-20260302","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"634","DOI":"10.3928\/23258160-20231010-01","article-title":"Patients with dragged optic disc vessels and retinal folds: Clinical features, multimodal imaging, and histopathology","volume":"54","author":"Iyer","year":"2023","journal-title":"Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina"}],"container-title":["Oman Journal of Ophthalmology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/ojo.ojo_424_24","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]],"date-time":"2026-08-26T19:37:58Z","timestamp":1787773078000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/ojo.ojo_424_24"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,1]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/ojo.ojo_424_24","relation":{},"ISSN":["0974-620X","0974-7842"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0974-620X","type":"print"},{"value":"0974-7842","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,1]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-12-23","name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-01-15","name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
