PURPOSE: To evaluate the disease extent on ultra-widefield fundus autofluorescence (UWF-FAF) in patients with ABCA4 Stargardt disease (STGD) and correlate these data with functional outcome measures.DESIGN: Retrospective cross-sectional study.METHODS: SETTING: Kellogg Eye Center, University of Michigan. STUDY POPULATION: Sixty-five patients with clinical diagnosis and proven pathogenic variants in the ABCA4 gene. OBSERVATIONAL PROCEDURES: The UWF-FAF images were obtained using Optos (200 degrees) and classified into 3 types. Functional testing included kinetic widefield perimetry, electroretinogram (ffERG), and visual acuity (VA). All results were evaluated with respect to UWF-FAF classification. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Classification of UWF-FAF; area comprising the I4e, III4e, and IV4e isopters; ffERG patterns; and VA.RESULTS: For UWF-FAF, 27 subjects (41.5%) were classified as type I, 17 (26.2%) as type. II, and 21 (32.4%) as type III. The area of each isopter correlated inversely with the extent of the disease and all isopters were able to detect differences among UWF-FAF types (IV4e, P = .0013; II14e, P = .0003; I4e, P < .0001 = 3.93e(-8)). ffERG patterns and VA were also different among the 3 UWF-FAF types (P < .001 = 6.61e(-6) and P < .001 = 7.3e(-5), respectively).CONCLUSION: Patients with widespread disease presented with more constriction of peripheral visual fields and had more dysfunction on ffERG and worse VA compared to patients with disease confined to the macula. UWF-FAF images may provide information for estimating peripheral and central visual function in STGD. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier Inc.
