Abstract

Dominant cystoid macular dystrophy (DCMD) is characterized by a prolonged course of bilateral macular cystoid change associated with leakage on fluorescein angiography, progressive loss of central vision, peripheral retinal pigmentary disturbances and subnormal electro-oculogram. The pigmentary changes and the electro-oculographic findings suggest dysfunction of the retinal pigment epithelium. We report the case of a woman affected by this dystrophy with its characteristic features.
