In this report, two rare cases of large atrophic peripheral retinal holes are described. Both patients presented during a routine visit without reporting any ocular symptoms. The holes did not exhibit significant risk factors for progression to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: No signs of posterior vitreous detachment, vitreoretinal tractions, or retinal degeneration were visible. For such asymptomatic cases, international guidelines recommend a strict follow-up schedule; however, the unusual size of the holes raised significant concerns about the management of these retinal breaks. The advantages and disadvantages of laser photo-coagulation treatment were discussed, ultimately favoring a watch-and-wait strategy.
