Abstract
Idiopathic perifoveal telangiectasia or macular telangiectasia type 2 is a rare condition of unknown pathogenesis initially described by Gass and Oyakawa in 1982.

In Melbourne collaborative cohort study incidence of Idiopathic macular telangiectasia type 2 ranged from 0.0045 percentage to 0.022 percentage and in Beaver Dam eye study prevalence, 0.1 percentage.
