Stargardt’s Disease

is a hereditary condition of degeneration in the macula

characterized by central vision loss with minimal changes

visible with an ophthamoscope. In advanced disease, the

macula may show pigment clumping surrounded by a

hammered-metal appearance. It is often associated with

fundus flavimaculatus.
