Fundus photograph of an 83-year-old male with a history of Diabetes, smoking, cataract surgery on the right eye in 2022, and open-angle glaucoma. Asymptomatic. Indirect ophthalmoscopy revealed 80% excavation, peripapillary atrophy, and a hyperpigmented perifoveal lesion with 35% atrophy, 10% drusen, and 5.1 mm diameter, corresponding to a CHRPE. At multimodal imaging, FFA shows hypoautofluorescence of the lesion, OCT shows preservation of internal retinal layers, atrophy of external retinal layer, with an RPE disruption, and posterior shadowing. USG shows a flat hyperechoic lesion 5.1 mm in diameter and 1.32 mm in thickness, solid and with high internal reflectance.

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.

10 year-old boy presented with noticed blurring of vision. He had total retinal detachment with complicated cataract. He underwent lensectomy with 240 band and vitrectomy with silicone oil. The retina failed to settle due to minute breaks in the inferior part of the disc. Repeat surgery with AMG was done to cover the inferior part of disc. The retina settled under silicone oil. Silicone oil was removed and he is presently undergoing amblyopia treatment. Vision is 2/60 with +14.5 diopter lens.
