  • All That Glows Yellow Isn’t Mellow: Coats' Disease Unveiled

    Nov 4 2025 by SHRADDHA RAJ SHRIVASTAVA

    Montage fundus image of an 11 year old boy diagnosed with left eye Coats' disease (stage 3A1), reveals a hyperemic disc and surrounding intra-retinal exudates superior to the disc. There is a single fibroglial nodule at the macula causing submacular fibrosis with exudation. We can see areas of pigmentary changes and RPE atrophy in posterior pole and mid-peripheral retina supero-temporally. There is massive yellowish subretinal exudation in all the quadrants, which are associated with telangiectatic aneurysmal capillary dilation, more prominently seen in the nasal periphery. Supero-nasally we can also see an orange-red elevated vaso-proliferative mass with overlying dilated capillaries, which has likely developed secondary to untreated long standing disease. We can also see associated extrafoveal subtotal exudative retinal detachment in the inferior and nasal quadrants.

  • LCA type 12

    Apr 10 2025 by Joshua Friedman

    LCA type 12 due to pathogenic mutations in RDH12. 13-year-old male with a visual acuity of 20/80 and 20/300 in the right and left eye, respectively. There is extensive pigment migration in the peripheral retina and macula. Like RPE65, there is widespread hypoautofluorescent signal, however, the peripapillary retina is uniquely spared in this form of LCA. On OCT, there is almost complete loss of the retina centrally.

  • A Classic Case of Retinal Ora Serrata Imaging

    Jan 16 2025 by yuan duo

    A 5-year-old girl, born full-term with no history of systemic disease, presented with poor vision since early childhood and underwent fundus examination. Anterior segments of both eyes showed no significant abnormalities. Fundus examination revealed retinal folds extending from the optic disc to the temporal peripheral retina, with blood vessels coursing through the folds (A, B). Avascular zones were observed in the peripheral retina, and the ora serrata’s boundaries were clearly visible, displaying dentate processes and bays (C, D). Retinal pigmentation was evident. Genetic testing confirmed the final diagnosis of bilateral Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy (FEVR).

  • Summary of Retinal Origins of Various Electroretinographic Components

    May 13 2024 by Gabrielle Hallai

    Each layer of the retina can be assessed using various electroretinographic techniques. A) A summary of the retinal origins of each response is shown here. B) Macular function can be assessed by pattern and multifocal ERG recording and provide a specific assessment of central vision, while flash tests are dominated by the more peripheral retina.
