Diagnosis: choroidal nevus - variations

Image Comments:

@ A typical choroidal nevus is slate gray in color and flat. Drusen are a sign of chronicity, i.e. they are present in a nevus that has been present for a long time. Nevi do not usually have orange pigmentation or subretinal fluid associated with them.
