Retinal macular dystrophy type 2

Definitions
Retinal macular dystrophy type 2 is a rare, genetic macular dystrophy disorder characterised by slowly progressive bull eye maculopathy associated, in most cases, with mild decrease in visual acuity and central scotomata. Usually, only the central retina is involved, however some cases of more widespread rod and cone anomalies have been reported. Rare additional features include empty sella turcica, impaired olfaction, renal infections, haematuria and recurrent miscarriages. A rare, genetic macular dystrophy disorder characterised by slowly progressive ''bull's eye'' maculopathy associated, in most cases, with mild decrease in visual acuity and central scotomata. Usually, only the central retina is involved, however some cases of more widespread rod and cone anomalies have been reported. Rare additional features include empty sella turcica, impaired olfaction, renal infections, haematuria and recurrent miscarriages. Caused by mutation in the prominin-1 gene (PROM1).
