Abstract

Macular telangiectasia type 2 (Mac Tel 2) is a bilateral disease of unknown cause with characteristic changes of the retinal vasculature. To the best of our knowledge, we could not find any reported cases of Mac Tel 2 with retinal arterial macroaneurysm (RAM). Our aim is to report a case of Mac Tel 2 with RAM.
