A case study that highlights the importance of multimodal imaging in practice for early identification of rare inherited retinal dystrophies.

Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina is a form of choroidal sclerosis and is a rare, progressive, autosomal recessive, inherited genetic disease that primarily affects the ocular tissue.

Early detection of incipient geographic atrophy is critical to identify patients at greatest risk of progression and who may benefit most from newly approved complement inhibition therapies.
