    Four cases of macular ectopia are described. Pseudostrabismus, caused by an increased angle alpha, is only one of the signs common to macular ectopia. A correct diagnosis is of fundamental importance because the treatment of macular ectopia is different from that of strabismus

    The standard X-ray preserves its value in verifying the presence of a foreign body (FB). The echography is valuable in verifying the site of a FB when it remains uncertain in respect to the sclera after X-ray localization. Computerized tomography scanning offers useful information about the physical nature of the FB

    A 16-year-old girl with Parry-Romberg syndrome presented with monolateral exudative neuroretinitis and retinal telangiectasis that had been observed for 42 months. She was treated with immunosuppressive therapy with A-cyclosporine for I year, followed by laser treatment of telangiectasis. Her visual acuity improved from 20/200 to 20/70 in I year with a reduction of neuroretinal exudation. Laser treatment resulted in a further improvement of visual acuity to 20/40. Clinical findings remained unchanged during 2 years of follow-up. The association of immunosuppressive treatment and laser therapy may improve neuroretinal disease in the presence of Parry-Romberg syndrom
