RetCam images (Clarity Medical Systems, USA). (A) Colour fundus photograph of the left eye showing rod-cone dystrophy (RCD) features (bone spicule-like pigmentation, arteriolar attenuation, waxy optic disc pallor) and extensive inferotemporal retinal/subretinal exudation. (B) Fluorescein angiography showing lightbulb telangiectatic vessels within the area of exudate. (C) Colour fundus photograph of the right eye showing RCD features without evidence of exudation.
