Optical coherence tomography findings in a case of cone-rod dystrophy.
A patient with cone-rod dystrophy, who was examined thoroughly with biomicroscopy, fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography, and electrophysiology, is presented. Although fluorescein angiography depicted only window-defect type of hyperfluorescence, optical coherence tomography disclosed detachment of the neurosensory retina, focal absence of the outer parts of the photoreceptors' layer in the fovea, and cystoid edema in the macula. To the authors' knowledge, these findings have not been described in cone-rod dystrophy so far.
