Familial Dominant Drusen is a genetically inherited retinal dystrophy and thought to represent an early-onset variant of age related macular degeneration. The gene responsible is EFEMP1 and inherited in autosomal dominant manner with variable expressivity. It is represented with multiple radially elongated small drusen in early stages and in later stages they become larger and more confluent. Geographic atrophy occurs in advanced stages.

Heidelberg Spectralis fluorescein angiography of a 94-year-old woman with Macular Degeneration affecting both eyes. The FA reveals transmission defects consistent with RPE changes and geographic atrophy of RPE of both eyes, as well as window defects consistent with peripheral scarring in the right eye. The patient's vision was Dcc20/70 in both eyes at the visit the images were taken.

This is the fundus photo showing numerous yellow, small, hard drusen distributed throughout the retina. The corresponding OCT shows numerous elevated lesions underneath the RPE causing RPE elevations and arranged in a saw-tooth manner. Macular complications include acquired vitelliform lesion, choroidal neovascular membrane and geographic atrophy which are common after 60 years of age. It is usually associated with mutations in complement factor H. Basal laminar drusen, diffuse drusen and early adult onset grouped drusen are other alternative names. The differential diagnosis includes autosomal dominant drusen, pattern macular dystrophy, Sorsby macular drusen, mitochondrial macular dystrophy and so on.

Retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) is a unique variant of neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Published studies have estimated that up to 15% of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration have RAP. Clinical features frequently associated with RAP include bilateral disease, presence of pigment epithelial detachments, and reticular pseudodrusen. RAP is more frequently associated with the development of retinal pigment epithelial tears and geographic atrophy that can lead to severe vision loss. We present a stereo fluorescein angiography and ICG (upper right and left image respectively) and OCT of left and right eye (middle and inferior image) of a RAP choroidal neovascularization in an 89-year-old patient.

Bilateral wide field fundus autofluorescence images of a 54-year-old female with macular pattern dystrophy associated with MELAS. The patient is positive for m.3243A>G in MT-TL1. She had stroke in her 40s, hearing loss in her 30s, and has early onset diabetes. MyRetinaTracker shows VUS in RP1L1. Mutation in RP1L1 have been describe in other families with occult macular dystrophy. Farnsworth D15 is showing mild tritan abnormality, which is most commonly seen with acquired maculopathies. 12/17/19 patient's Optos and OCT show mild progression of atrophy.

This OCT B-scan shows geographic atrophy (GA) in dry age-related macular degeneration. There is focal atrophy of the RPE and outer retinal layers underneath the fovea, which is typical of GA. The loss of RPE in the affected area, relative to the surrounding macula, results in reverse shadowing within the underlying choroid. This effect is due to more penetration of the optical signal from the OCT illumination source owing to a relative absence of light being reflected as it normally would be from intact RPE. The result is a distinct border on each side of the affected area, where the underlying choroidal signal is more intense than the immediately adjacent areas. Additionally, adjacent to the area of GA are typical drusen, which are nodule-like diffusely hyperreflective accumulations within and under the RPE/Bruch complex, and pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs), which are nodule-like elevations of the RPE with underlying hyporeflective spaces.
