Resolution of night blindness in fundus albipunctatus.
Two sisters, aged 14 and 7 years, and their father had ophthalmoscopic and electrophysiologic findings consistent with fundus albipunctatus. Evaluation of family members revealed a history of severe juvenile night blindness which resolved by about age 20 in some affected individuals. This familial pattern is consistent with autosomal dominant fundus albipunctatus.
