Senile macular degeneration and geographic atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The case is reported of a man who had oval areas of atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium in paracentral areas which previously had heavy concentrations of drusen OU. This supports the suggestion by others that atrophy of the RPE in senile macular disease may in some cases occur in the absence of previous serous detachment of the RPE.
