Examples of patients without expert consensus suspected of having other causes of macular atrophy identified in an audit of 1136 cases of macular atrophy Case 21. Classification diagnosis pattern macular dystrophy. Colour fundus photograph of the (A) right and (B) left eyes of a 63 year old white female showing foci of atrophy in the right eye and an incidental left choroidal naevus; OCT scanning of the (C) right and (D) left eyes showing a focus of atrophy in the right eye without drusen; infrared photography of the (E) right and (F) left eyes two years later, at age 65, showing two foci of atrophy with radiating pale lesions in the right eye; FAF of the (G) right and (H) left eyes demonstrating foci of hypoautofluorescence in the right eye. Case 29. Myopic macular atrophy. Infrared images of the (I) right and (J) left eyes; OCT scans of the K) right and L) left eyes of an 87-year-old white male. Images interpreted as showing bilateral peripapillary atrophy, staphyloma and foci of atrophy associated with unrecognized myopic macular changes.
