Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP)
is a hereditary, progressive retinal degeneration in both eyes. Night blindness, usually
in childhood, is followed by loss of peripheral vision (initially as ring-shaped defect).
It progresses over many years to tunnel vision and then blindness.
Patchy hypoautofluorescent findings
seen in the periphery in RP
A hyperautofluorescent ring around
the macula can be associated with
