AO_SCPLOWBSTRACTC_SCPLOWO_ST_ABSPurposeC_ST_ABSTo characterize photoreceptor layer thinning in clinically unremarkable regions adjacent to the atrophic lesion in early-stage ABCA4 disease eyes. Methods27 patients with confined atrophic lesions ([≤]3.5mm in diameter) were included. Two pathogenic alleles were confirmed by sequencing of the ABCA4 locus. Multimodal imaging included color fundus photography, short wavelength-autofluorescence (SW-AF) and near infrared-autofluorescence (NIR-AF) im...
