Overview

The hallmark of retinoblastoma is leukocoria which is an abnormal appearance of the retina as viewed through the pupil, also known as amaurotic cat's eye reflex. Other common symptoms include strabismus and proptosis. The clinical presentation depends on the stage of the disease.

History and ymptoms

Clinical features of retinoblatoma are approximately the same in variable studies and the common findings are as follow:[1][2][3]

Presenting symptoms in adult onset of the tumor are insidious and are such as:[4]
