Stargardt Disease

Stargardt disease is a degeneration of the macula causing a decrease in central vision. It is the most common form of inherited juvenile macular degeneration. Normal visual acuity is 20/20, and a person who has Stargardts will have a visual acuity anywhere between 20/200 and 20/400. Here are a few fundus autofluorescence and fluorescein angiogram images that I took a while back of a child with this disease.
