This wide-field fundus autofluorescence belongs to a 43 year-old female with CORD and no family history of inherited retinal disease. Her complains were reduced visual acuity and photophobia beginning in early adulthood. Note the central hyperautofluorescence with patchy hypoautofluorescence depicting atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium in the macular area, an equatorial ring of preserved retinal autofluorescence and peripheral changes portraying rod involvement. The latter would be easily missed without wide-field imaging.
