Preferred term label:
Perifoveal hypoautofluorescence
Synonyms
Hypofluorescent lesion in the perifoveal region
Definition (free text, please give PubMed ID)
Decreased amount of autofluorescence (emission of fluorescent light from ocular structures in the absence of sodium fluorescein) in the retina in the region surrounding the fovea.
Comment: Fundus autofluorescence utilizes a scanning laser ophthalmoscope to stimulate intrinsically autofluorescent molecules of lipofuscin to visualize the retinal pigment epithelium.
