Objective To investigate the characteristics of congenital retinoschisis of optical coherence tomography(OCT) and its clinical application. Methods Eight cases(15 eyes) which were diagnosed as or suspected to retinoschisis in clinic were examined by OCT,direct ophthalmoscopy and color fundus photograph.Three cases(6 eyes) were examined by electroretinogram(ERG) and fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA). Results The typical characteristic OCT images of congenital retinoschisis were cystic maculopathy with tilted and vertical connective filaments,typical split in innner retinal layers in posterior retina and thickening of neurosensory retina with the split of outer retinal layers in membranous remnants. Conclusions OCT can display the characteristics of congenital retinoschisis．It is potentially useful as a new technique for the diagnosis of congenital retinoschisis.
