Montage fundus photographs of a 47 year old female presenting with unilateral vision loss in the left eye. Fundoscopy revealed extensive intraretinal pigment clumps, waxy disc pallor, and marked vessel attenuation in the left eye with a normal fundus in the right. Electroretinography showed unilateral reduction in rod and cone function. Unilateral pigmentary retinopathy, an uncommon variant of retinitis pigmentosa (reported incidence ˜ 5%) presents with RP-like changes in one eye, the fellow eye being completely normal. Proposed causes include lyonization and somatic mosaicism. Conditions which mimic RP should be excluded, and any diagnoses should be supported with electrodiagnostic tests and autofluorescence imaging. Management parallels RP, focusing on cataract and macular complications and long-term follow-up to monitor possible bilateral progression.

Both right and left eyes have symmetrical ring of mottled hypo/hyper AF around the fovea and disc. The HyperAF areas correspond to RPE deposits on OCT as well as areas of blockage on FA, and drusenoid deposits seen on fundus photos 57 yo WF referred for AMD vs Pattern Dystrophy that was diagnosed 10 years ago. Reported some slow progressive vision loss in both eyes for distance and near. Denies nyctalopia or hemeralopia. Background medical history includes HTN, CVD, and DM. No family history of eye problems. Denied pentosan use. Anterior segment showed moderate cataracts (OD>OS). Posterior segment exam showed macular changes and mild NPDR. The macular appearance showed a symmetrical, paramacular ring of fleck-like drusenoid material with some faint focal areas of RPE hyperplasia. Fundus Photos, AF, OCT were performed as well as a gene test. Further questioning showed revealed that her mother and maternal grandmother had both diabetes mellitus and sensorineural hearing loss. The patient developed diabetes in her teens, and some high frequency hearing loss in her early twenties. She had not had a previous genetic test or diagnosis of MIDD. Gene testing is pending for the mitochondrial component. Invitae's retinal panel, which does not include mitochondrial disorders, only showed a variant of uncertain significance, HMCN1. I discussed this case with Dr. Freund, and it is similar to a the case report : Inoue M, Kiss S, Freund KB.
