    Discrete lines of increased fundus autofluorescence (FAF) have recently been described in various retinal dystrophies.1-2 It has been shown that these lines demarcate areas with impaired retinal sensitivity from those without and may constrict or expand in different retinal dystrophies over time.1-2 Morphological changes corresponding to lines of increased FAF have not been described yet. Likewise, the mechanism underlying the abnormal accumulation of lipofuscin and increased FAF is unknown. In ... (Read Full Article)
