  3. Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_hypertrophy_of...

    CHRPE is a lesion with the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE)— densely packed cells in a single layer forming a blockage between the retina and the choroid— [6] that is generally cordial. There are three variations of CHRPE: solitary, grouped, and atypical, with these being found in ophthalmoscopes. [ 5 ]

  4. Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy

    Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA), [10] and OCT angiography (OCTA) [11] [12] [13] studies have provided support for choriocapillaris involvement. However, a novel hypothesis was proposed implicating a direct neurotropic infection as a possible underlying cause given the dynamic changes observed along the neuronal pathway of the retina [ 14 ]

    Inherited retinal dystrophy/diseases: Back of the eye of a person with mid-stage retinitis pigmentosa. Note pigment deposits in the mid periphery along with retinal atrophy. While the macula is preserved there is some loss of pigmentation around it. Specialty: Ophthalmology, Optometry: Symptoms: Trouble seeing at night, decreased peripheral ...

  7. Geographic atrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_atrophy

    Fundus of geographic atrophy. Geographic atrophy (GA), also known as atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or advanced dry AMD, is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration that can result in the progressive and irreversible loss of retinal tissue (photoreceptors, retinal pigment epithelium, choriocapillaris) which can lead to a loss of central vision over time.

  8. Drusen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drusen

    Drusen, from the German word for node or geode (singular, "Druse"), are tiny yellow or white accumulations of extracellular material that build up between Bruch's membrane and the retinal pigment epithelium of the eye. The presence of a few small ("hard") drusen is normal with advancing age, and most people over 40 have some hard drusen. [1]

  9. Cone dystrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_dystrophy

    Cone dystrophy; Fundus of a 45 year-old patient with cone rod dystrophy segregating with a loss-of-function mutation (E1087X) in ABCA4. Note the presence of various-shaped pigment deposits in the posterior pole with atrophy of the retina, while the retina appears less damaged in periphery (upper part of the photograph).
