Abstract:
Foveal hypopalsia (FH) is typically seen in association with diseases like albinism and aniridia, and familial FH (FFH) is very rare. The authors present a case of unique association of FH with dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria (DUH). Family members of this patient had history of nystagmus and dermal pigmentary anomalies, suggesting that this may represent FFH with DUH in X-linked pattern. The authors also discuss the role of pigment anomalies in manifesting as this combination. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2019;50:192-195.].
