Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita is a well-characterized cutaneous vascular disorder with variable and rare ocular involvement. It has been reported in association with glaucoma, bilateral congenital retinal detachments, bilateral tractional retinal detachments secondary to proliferative vitreoretinopathy, and retinoblastoma. This case demonstrates novel findings of bilateral peripheral retinal vascular abnormalities and retinal nonperfusion on fluorescein angiography without retinal detachment that have not previously been described in cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita. Laser photocoagulation was applied to areas of retinal nonperfusion with stability in the retinal pathology at follow-up examination 3 months later.
