Abstract
Foveal hyperfluorescence is an early sign of achromatopsia that can aid in clinical diagnosis. In our cohort, patients with achromatopsia demonstrated age-dependent changes in FAF, which are likely to be progressive and to correlate with foveal atrophy and cavitation on OCT. This finding may be useful in charting the natural course of the disease and in defining a therapeutic window for treatment.
