The most characteristic decline in the performance of the retina and retinal vascular abnormalities of transparency. Because of its potentially blinding, nor clear etiology and treatment. explore the disease etiology, disease mechanism, detection methods and treatment are increasingly becoming concerns of ophthalmic workers. [Key Words] fovea, telangiectasia, retinal Abstract Idiopathic parafoveal telangiectasis (IPT) is a rare eye disease. The most characteristic manifestations are decrease of retinal transparency and retinal vascular anomalies. As it can cause blind and we know nothing about its etiological factors and treatment, so to explore its disease etiology, pathogenesis, detection methods and treatment options have become a common concern. ?r KEYWORDS: fovea centralis; telangiectasis; retina 0 Introduction Next to the fovea idiopathic telangiectasia (idiopathic parafoveal telangiectasis, IPT was first proposed in 1982 by Gass, and in 1993 the first established by the Gass and Blodi type [1,2]. In recent years, high-speed vessels angiography, OCT and histopathologic study of the application, IPT vascular anomaly and the nature of the impact of the macular region has a more profound understanding [37]. 1 Causes and risk factors 1.1 Etiology Idiopathic foveal telangiectasia next to the cause has not been clear and, therefore, had a large number of hypotheses. Initially, Gass [8] have been proposed based on clinical features: IPT is a priority due to its abnormal retinal capillaries, leading to Mller cells in the retina and the lack of nutrition, and ultimately the formation of IPT. With the application of emerging technologies on the IPT, discovered the abnormal function of Mller cells in fact take precedence over capillary endothelial cell
