Abstract: To determine the characteristics of the results of fluorescein angiography (FFA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in Stargardt′s disease(STGD). Methods7 patients (14 eyes) with Stargardt′s were diagnosed by ocular fundus photochromy, and 6 patients (12 eyes) received FFA and 7 patients (14 eyes) received OCT. ResultsPigment was disordered at the macula in 4 eyes by ophthalmoscopy. A “dark choroid" and window defect (bulls-eye pattern hyperfluorescence) were found by FFA, yellow-white fleck lesions were found in the pole in 8 eyes by ophthalmoscopy, also hypofluorescent became more apparent in the later phase by FFA, and the retina was reduced or deleted in 14 eyes by OCT.  ConclusionFFA combined with OCT is useful for studying the clinical features and pathological mechanism of Stargardt's disease.
