AbstractBest vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVD) is a slowly progressive form of macular dystrophy. In most cases this disease begins in childhood although sometimes it can develop in later age. The diagnosis of BVD is based on family history, clinical and electrophysiological findings. Clinical signs are variable, yet the majority of patients have a typical yellow yolk-like macular lesion in the eye fundus. Lesions are usually bilateral, but in rare cases can be unilateral. Atrophy of the macula may develop after many years. The mutations responsible for Best vitelliform macular dystrophy are found in a gene called VMD2, which encodes a transmembrane protein named bestrophin-1 (hBest1) that is a Ca2+-sensitive chloride channel. Most reported cases causing the disease are in exons 2, 4, 6 and 8 in patients with BVD. In this article we discuss the etiology of Best’s vitelliform macular dystrophy, clinical presentation, diagnostics, genetic and current treatment possibilities.

Background: Vitelliform macular dystrophy is an autosomal-dominant disease and has two clinical variants: Best’s (VMD2) and adult onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AOVMD). We report an atypical presentation of VMD2. Case: A 50-year-old male presented with history of blurring of vision in left eye since two year. On fundus examination, left eye revealed a single, circular, yellow-opaque egg yolk-like macular lesion with no other abnormality. Fundus examination of right eye was unremarkable. Fundus fluoresceine angiography showed blocked fluorescence in the area of lesion. EOG-Arden ratios were found to be severely reduced bilaterally. OCT left eye showed sub-retinal hyperreflective echo. Conclusion: The age of onset and presentation can be highly variable in VMD2 and the vitelliform phase of VMD2 in elderly can be confused for adult onset vitelliform macular dystrophy(AOVMD). However, Arden ratio <1.5 is diagnostic of VMD2.
