Description Number of Figures and legend for each: 6 figures Figure 1: Goldmann perimetry showing large cecocentral scotomas in both eyes Figure 2: Fundus photograph of the right eye demonstrating hypopigmentation of the peripapillary and perifoveal retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) with subfoveal yellow lesions in both eyes. The optic nerve is normal. Figure 3: Fundus photograph of left eye demonstrating the same hypopigmentation of the peripapillary and perifoveal retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) with subfoveal yellow lesions in both eyes. Figure 4: OCT demonstrating preservation of the inner retinal layers, thickening of the ellipsoid layer (photoreceptors), and early hyporeflective subfoveal collection indicating fluid. Figure 5: Fundus autofluorescence of the right eye reveals a speckled pattern of hyperautofluorescence around the nerve and macula on a normal background Figure 6: Fundus autofluorescence of the left eye again demonstrates a similar speckled pattern
