Image Challenge Q: What term is used to describe this finding? Answer: 4. Coloboma Colobomas are the result of abnormal closure of the optic fissure. They may occur anywhere along the optic fissure and can affect the iris, choroid, or macula. Isolated iris colobomas are asymptomatic, but those involving the macula or the optic disk can result in severe visual impairment. Typical iris colobomas occur in the inferonasal quadrant.
