Associated disease GACR;OATD
Phenotype details 15y: decreased central vision and visual acuity, prominent presence of fundus flecks in the retina; fundus: optic disc waxy yellow, retinal vasculature thin; retinal pigment epithelium and choroid atrophied with the exception of the unatrophied retina around the optic disc and the fovea of the macula; large choroidal vessels clearly visible in the atrophied area, the sclera visible at the posterior pole, and the atrophied areas were flat and petal-like at the peripheral area; scattered pigment deposits were observed across the entire retina, all results confirmed by fluorescein angiography; macular hypofluorescence; fundus autofluorescence: autofluorescence only appeared in the macular area, around the optic disc and peripheral pole; macular optical coherence tomography: moderate thinning in the retinal nerve fibre layer, cystic oedema in the middle, loss of external limiting membrane and ellipsoid area, significant thinning of the choroid, and only minimal vascular wall reflex, subcentral foveal choroid partially atrophied, extracentral choroidal atrophy more pronounced, strong reflective belt on the sclera under the retina outside of the fovea; full-field electroretinogram: scotopic rod response b-wave heavily reduced, and the scotopic combined rod-cone response flat both eyes; refraction right / left eye: highly myopic (-12.00/-12.50 dioptres)
