Description Katz and Hoyt described a syndrome in young Asian female myopes presenting with unilateral tri-laminar hemorrhage: nerve fiber layer, subretinal, and vitreous. These patients typically had a contralateral small dysplastic disc.(1) Katz and Hoyt hypothesized causation by trauma of disc capillaries by vitreopapillary traction (VPT). The role of VPT remains controversial. We describe the use of modern imaging studies in this syndrome.
