Case 2 fundus autofluorescence and high definition spectral domain optical coherence tomography (HD-OCT). Fundus autofluorescent frame of the right eye (20/20 best corrected visual acuity) shows mottled autofluorescence in the macular area and clearly delineates the retinal flecks. HD-OCT scans (A, B, and C) show an intact inner segment and outer segment interface of the photoreceptors (PR) centrally (enlarged view), but diffuse parafoveal loss of the PR layer (open arrows), and small hyperreflective lesions presented either as dome-shaped deposits within the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) (B, thin arrow), or as small linear deposits located at the level of the outer nuclear layer and clearly separated from the RPE (A and C, arrowheads).
