Fundus autofluorescence in a case of benign concentric annular macular dystrophy

Abstract

The benign concentric annular macular dystrophy (BCAMD) is a very rare and probably underdiagnosed eye disease, characterized by a retinal fault in bull’s eye pattern, without the association with antimalarial use, but related with good visual acuity. Since there aren’t many publications about this condition, is hard to find data regarding the results of complementary examination. In this article, is presented the description of fundus autofluorescence in a classic BCAMD case, yet unpublished, and capable of helping the diagnosis and follow-up of this pathology.
