    Description
    Heidelberg fundus autofluorescence image demonstrating bull’s-eye maculopathy. The macula shows a characteristic parafoveal ring of abnormal autofluorescence surrounding the foveal center, corresponding to retinal pigment epithelium and outer retinal dysfunction. Areas of decreased autofluorescence represent RPE atrophy, while adjacent increased autofluorescence highlights stressed or metabolically altered RPE. The pattern is well demarcated and symmetric, consistent with a classic bull’s-eye configuration.
