Fundoscopy of a 42-year-old asymptomatic man with pigmented paravenous chorioretinal atrophy. Pigmented paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy (PPRCA) is a rare disorder of unknown etiology. The disease is characterized by pigment accumulation along the distribution of retinal veins. The findings are usually incidental with minimal effect on vision.

Fundus Autofluorescence Image of a 42YO female patient diagnosed with Pigmented Paravenous Retinochoroidal Atrophy. Findings were bilateral. Image shows hypoautofluorescence in the affected areas due to overall loss of RPE cells and thus lower lipofuscin levels.

Ultra-widefield fundus photograph and autofluorescence of a 33-year-old woman with longstanding serpiginous choroiditis in the right eye. The image reveals centrifugal chorioretinal atrophy forming a dramatic fractal-like pattern, sparing the fovea. The patient is several years post-onset, with repeated negative workups, including for tuberculosis. Despite extensive lesions, the patient retains 20/20 vision in both eyes. Management included azathioprine monotherapy, as systemic steroids were contraindicated due to bipolar disorder.

A 14-year-old male, presented to our clinic for a regular ophthalmic examination. Both Eyes Best Corrected Visual Acuity was 6/6, N6. The Indirect Ophthalmoscopic examination revealed an incidental finding in both eyes with patches of chorioretinal atrophy and pigment clumps along the veins consistent with pigmented paravenous chorioretinal atrophy (PPCRA) with early attenuation of retinal vessels, normal discs, and macula. ERG was normal. The patient was counseled and explained the nature of his condition. He was asked to be in yearly follow-up.

Montage fundus photograph of the left eye with end stage Sympathetic Ophthalmia, demonstrating optic nerve pallor, severe arterial attenuation, extensive chorioretinal atrophy (sclera is exposed in most areas), and peripheral RPE hyperplasia. Patient is a 50 yo Asian female with history of multiple vitrectomies due to retinal detachment and loss of vision who developed Sympathetic Ophthalmia in the other eye. This picture is 20 years after the disease process started, with end stage picture and HM vision.

Fundus photograph of the left eye in a 58 yo male with rod cone dystrophy. He presented with night blindness and peripheral vision loss since youth and recent decrease in central vision for the past 10 years. Notice waxy pallor of the nerve, severe arterial narrowing and chorioretinal atrophy mainly around the arcades as well as posterior pole along with RPE hyperplastic changes and atrophy. RPE atrophy in midperiphery has coin shaped appearance. FAF has characteristic appearance (uploaded separately) He has one pathogenic variants of both CEP290 and PRPH2 genes.
