Role of red free imaging, retinal reflectance and fundus autofluorescence in Bietti crystalline dystrophy: case report [PDF]
Therapeutic Advances in Rare Disease, 2020 Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD), a rare autosomal recessive hereditary disorder, is identified by its clinical features. It is characterised by crystalline deposits and hence called crystalline retinopathy. The retinopathy progresses with age, showing

Macular cysts in bietti crystalline dystrophy
TNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research, 2022 Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD) is a rare autosomal disorder characterized by the presence of intraretinal crystalline deposits and later chorioretinal degeneration. We describe a case of BCD with macular cysts.
