Best Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy In Afghan Twins.
Best vitelliform macular dystrophy is the second most common type of hereditary fundus dystrophies. Our case report describes twin brothers of Afghan family who developed Best vitelliform macular dystrophy. One of them developed choroidal neovascularization in one eye which was treated with single intravitreal injection of bevacizumab. The patient showed stable vision and did not have any recur...
متن کاملPhotoreceptor Inner Segment Morphology in Best Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy.
PURPOSE To characterize outer retina structure in best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) and to determine the effect of macular lesions on overlying and adjacent photoreceptors. METHODS Five individuals with BVMD were followed prospectively with spectral domain optical coherence tomography and confocal and nonconfocal split-detector adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO). Th...
متن کاملDark adaptation in patients with Best vitelliform macular dystrophy.
Psychophysical dark adaptation studies were performed in six patients with Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) using a Goldmann-Weekers dark adaptometer. Prebleach thresholds were determined before obtaining a postbleach full recovery curve. Unlike patients with Stargardt macular dystrophy, all patients with BVMD showed a normal time to reach their baseline dark adapted thresholds after b...
متن کاملA model of best vitelliform macular dystrophy in rats.
PURPOSE The VMD2 gene, mutated in Best macular dystrophy (BMD) encodes bestrophin, a 68-kDa basolateral plasma membrane protein expressed in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. BMD is characterized by a depressed light peak (LP) in the electro-oculogram. Bestrophin is thought to be the Cl channel that generates the LP. The goal was to generate an animal model of BMD and to determine the eff...
متن کاملOuter retinal structure in best vitelliform macular dystrophy.
IMPORTANCE Demonstrating the utility of adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO) to assess outer retinal structure in Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD). OBJECTIVE To characterize outer retinal structure in BVMD using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and AOSLO. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Prospective, observational case series. Four symptomatic...
