{"title":"A Rare Association of Foveoschisis with Gyrate Atrophy","authors":"K. Tekin, Serdar Ozates, M. Y. Teke","doi":"10.7869/DJO.295","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7869/DJO.295","url":null,"abstract":"Case Description A 17 year-old female patient presented with complaints of sudden decrease in vision and central scotoma in both eyes, along with progressive night vision deterioration over the past several years. The patient’s visual acuities were 20/100 with -2.00 spherical diopters (D) in the right eye and 20/80 with -2.50 spherical D in the left eye. Fundus examination of the patient demonstrated multiple bilateral, sharply defined, and scalloped areas of chorioretinal atrophy in the mid-peripheral zones (Figures 1&2). Fundus fluorescein angiography did not show any leakage even in late phases in both the eyes. The wide-field OCT scans of both eyes disclosed increased central macular thicknesses with widespread hyporeflective spaces separated by multiple linear bridging elements in the inner nuclear and inner plexiform layers, in addition to retinal defects at outer nuclear and outer plexiform layers. Moreover, elevated level of plasma ornithine (967 Mmol/L) was detected, establishing the diagnosis of Gyrate Atrophy (GA). Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina is a rare, genetically determined, autosomal recessive metabolic disorder characterized by multiple, sharply demarcated, circular or oval areas of chorioretinal atrophy in the mid-periphery of the fundus, which are initially separate and later become confluent with increasing age1. Macular involvement has been reported in this disease and includes cystoid macular edema, epimacular membrane, macular hole, and choroidal neovascularization.2-4 Foveoschisis refers to splitting of the neurosensory retina, and is usually noted in highly myopic patients, Goldman-Favre Syndrome, and those with X-linked retinoschisis.5 However, the association of foveoschisis with gyrate atrophy is very rare. Herein, we report a 17 year-old female with an unusual appearance on fundus photography and Spectralis optical coherence tomography (OCT): bilateral GA concomitant with foveoschisis. (Figure 3 & 4) In this patient, examination revealed no specific findings such as optic pits, myopic degeneration with staphyloma, or vitreoretinal traction, and we presume that the foveoschisis might have been triggered by GA.

Dada","doi":"10.7869/DJO.294","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7869/DJO.294","url":null,"abstract":"Over the past decade, there has been an exponential increase in the database of heritable eye disorders. More than 100,000 germline mutations reported in more than 3,700 different human nuclear genes are associated with inherited diseases. Continuously increasing mutation database has revolutionized the study of human genome and facilitated ‘‘personalized genomics.’’ With more than 300 new ‘‘inherited disease genes’’ being identified annually, it is essential to ask how many ‘‘inherited disease genes’’ are in the human genome, containing how many mutations, and where they are located? Knowledge of the clinical and molecular features of ocular genetics and inherited eye diseases is important for appropriate diagnosis and patient management. Genetic causes for a wide range of eye diseases have been identified, leading to discovery of genes associated with the eye disorder. Discovery of these new genes have led to a rethinking and a reclassification of eye disorders that were earlier based only on classical clinical signs, but now also on underlying genetic aetiology. Some of these disorders include the corneal dystrophies, rare forms of strabismus, ocular disorders resulting from mutations in transcription factors, cataract that result from mutations in crystallins and other structural lens components, retinal dystrophies that result from defects in phototransduction or visual cycle defects and many more. This article discusses molecular basis of some of these eye disorders and also advances in the field of ophthalmic genetics.","PeriodicalId":23047,"journal":{"name":"The Official Scientific Journal of Delhi Ophthalmological Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"51-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75710965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Low vision rehabilitation (LVR) is the process of restoring functional ability and improving quality of life and independence of a patient with low vision.

Lack of awareness about the low vision services are a major drawback in the rehabilitation of a low vision patient in our country.
