SPECTRAL DOMAIN OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FEATURES IN DIFFERENT STAGES OF BEST VITELLIFORM MACULAR DYSTROPHY

Abstract

Spectral domain optical coherence tomography assessment primarily indicates an outer retinal layer disruption in Stages 2 to 4, along with the presence of vitelliform material extending into the more advanced clinical stages too. Eyes characterized by the persistence of vitelliform material show better best-corrected visual acuity. Future investigations based on a longitudinal follow-up are warranted to correlate SD-OCT modifications with functional responses to identify SD-OCT indicators for prognostic and therapeutic purposes.
