AB  - An 18 year-old male with no antecedent of trauma, systemic syndrome or myopia was 
      referred for surgical treatment of a full thickness macular hole in the left eye. 
      A more careful inspection revealed discrete foveal cystic changes in the fellow 
      eye and subtle peripheral depigmented retinal pigment epithelial changes in both 
      eyes. A spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scan confirmed, in 
      addition to the full thickness macular hole in the left eye, microcystic spaces 
      in the nuclear layers of both retinae. The diagnosis of X-linked retinoschisis 
      was confirmed with a full field electroretinogram displaying the typical negative 
      ERG. Macular holes are uncommon in the young and those complicating X-linked 
      retinoschisis are rare. This report highlights the importance of investigating 
      the presence of a macular hole in a young patient and illustrates the clinical 
      and SD-OCT clues beyond the foveal center which led to the correct diagnosis of 
      X-linked juvenile retinoschisis.
