Choroidal folds are alternating light and dark bands on the retina caused by undulations in the choroid, Bruch’s membrane, and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Hypotony is a common cause, often following ocular surgery or inflammation. Clinically, folds appear as horizontal or oblique striations in the posterior pole. Diagnosis involves Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and fundus imaging, confirming characteristic patterns. Additional criteria include low intraocular pressure (IOP) and associated symptoms such as blurred vision or discomfort.
