foveal hypoplasia

Ocular albinism often presents with foveal hypoplasia, characterized by an underdeveloped fovea. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) reveals the absence of a foveal pit and a continuous inner retinal layer. This lack of foveal specialization is a hallmark of the condition and contributes to visual acuity deficits. Advanced imaging techniques, including OCT, are essential for diagnosing and understanding the structural abnormalities associated with ocular albinism.

Foveal hypoplasia grade 1a is characterized by the absence of a foveal pit while retaining the inner retinal layers at the fovea. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) reveals the absence of the typical foveal depression and a continuous inner retinal layer. Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) shows an abnormal vascular pattern, with less defined capillary networks at the fovea, which helps in diagnosing and assessing the extent of hypoplasia.
