Macular coloboma is a rare and distinct entity thought to be a consequence of a developmental abnormality or a resolved inflammation secondary to intrauterine or postnatal infection. Acquired macular scars are usually post-inflammatory scars secondary to chorioretinitis usually caused by toxoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, and, rarely, ocular Toxocara infection. We report a unique case of seronegative bilateral macular coloboma with multifocal choroiditis in the right eye. To our knowledge, unilateral multifocal choroiditis has not been reported in association with bilateral macular coloboma in the literature.
