Not every large retinal “mass” is a tumor.

This patient presented with sudden loss of central vision. The fundus photo shows a massive submacular hemorrhage occupying much of the posterior pole.

At first glance, lesions like this can mimic a choroidal melanoma or other intraocular mass. OCT was largely obscured by the hemorrhage, emphasizing the importance of clinical history and maintaining a broad differential diagnosis.

I’ve encountered similar presentations in patients with leukemia, where hematologic abnormalities can lead to dramatic retinal and subretinal hemorrhage.

A reminder that in ophthalmology, appearances can be deceiving—and the patient’s history is often as important as the image itself.
