Presents a select team of experts, all of whom are true international leaders in retinal imaging, and have assisted in contributing to the diverse library of common and rare case illustrations. [books.google.com]
Systemic Features: No systemic disease is present. Genetics This is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the PLA2G5 gene located at 1p36.13-p36.12. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Inheritance - congenital achromatopsia is transmitted in an autosomal-recessive trait Presentation - patients present in early childhood with nystagmus, abnormal visual behaviour or photophobia. Acuity is less than 20/200. [patient.info]

Eyes
- Retinal Pigmentation
The patient had widespread discrete yellow-white fleck lesions of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) bilaterally, extending to the far periphery but sparing the macular region. [bio2rdf.org]
The retinal pigment epithelium and vasculature are normal. Systemic Features: No systemic disease is present. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Furthermore, spectral domain optical coherence tomography showed focal thickening of the retinal pigment epithelium because of the presence of these flecks. [wwww.unboundmedicine.com]

- Night Blindness
RESULTS Fundus examination in two of the triplets revealed discrete yellow-white flecks and both had good vision and absence of night blindness, consistent with benign familial fleck retina. The flecks were hyperautofluorescent. [wwww.unboundmedicine.com]

Prognosis
CONCLUSION The clinical findings in this family suggest a diagnosis of benign familial fleck retina with excellent prognosis, in which the PLA2G5 gene may play a role. [wwww.unboundmedicine.com]
Prognosis - there is no progression. [patient.info]
Diagnosis and Prognosis: The diagnosis is made by an ophthalmologist, usually during a routine examination since there are no symptoms. There is no visual dysfunction or impact on general health. Additional Information [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Prognosis depends on the sev^erity of rod involvement; minimal involveTnent has a better prognosis, at least in the intermediate term. 10. [archive.org]
Etiology
They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]
