Congenital simple hamartoma of the retinal pigment epithelium with depigmentation at the margin in an Indian female
Objective: To report a case of congenital simple hamartoma of the retinal pigment epithelium (CSHRPE) with depigmentation at the margin.Method: Case report.Result: A 40-year-old Indian female was noted to have a small pigmented lesion with a depigmented margin toward the fovea in the right eye.
