Distinct characteristics of inferonasal fundus autofluorescence patterns in stargardt disease and retinitis pigmentosa.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To report distinct characteristics of fundus autofluorescence (AF) patterns inferior to the optic disc in recessive Stargardt disease (STGD1) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). METHODS: Short-wavelength (SW) and near-infrared (NIR) AF images were acquired from patients with STGD1 and RP. In SW- and NIR-AF images of STGD1 patients, gray levels (GL) on both sides of the demarcation line were measured. RESULTS: In STGD1, a demarcation line, which has been assigned to the closed optic fissure, was visible on SW-AF and NIR-AF inferior to the optic disc. In healthy subjects, this demarcation line is only visible by SW-AF. At 20 degrees inferior to the disc center, AF levels on the nasal side were 25% (+/-11%) lower than on the temporal side in SW-AF images and 18% (+/-11%) lower in NIR-AF images. For both STGD1 and RP, the inferonasal quadrant exhibited distinct SW- and NIR-AF patterns compared with other fundus areas. Disease-related AF changes, such as flecks, appeared to respect the demarcation line as a boundary. CONCLUSIONS: Disease-related AF patterns originating in RPE in STGD1 and RP appear to respect the demarcation line in the inferonasal quadrant of the fundus as a border. The visibility of the inferonasal demarcation line by NIR-AF in STGD1 but not in healthy eyes may indicate that increased levels of RPE lipofuscin modulate the melanin-related NIR-AF signal. This feature of NIR-AF images may aid in the diagnosis of STGD1 patients.
