In this report the optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings of 2 patients with foveal hypoplasia are presented. One patient had oculocutaneous albinism, which is a frequent cause of foveal hypoplasia, and had decreased visual acuity in both eyes. The second patient did not have an associated disease. The clinical and OCT findings of both patients are summarized.

Keywords: Albinism, fovea, hypoplasia.
