Abstract
To describe a patient with clinically documented autosomal dominant vitreoretinochoroidopathy who has had 11 years of progression from initial description and now demonstrates evidence of central cone dysfunction. Case report. The patient is a member of a pedigree described in the literature. This is a case report format that follows standard clinical studies. The patient had normal full field electroretinography results but focally reduced multifocal electroretinography results and evidence of macular atrophy on optical coherence tomography. Autosomal dominant vitreoretinochoroidopathy may result in central cone dysfunction because of macular atrophy late in the course of the disease, although electroretinography and visual fields remain stable over extended follow-up periods.
