Abstract

CHOROIDEREMIA is a rare clinical entity. The name, which implies a congenital absence of the choroid, is not very well chosen, as the choroid is not absent at birth. The condition is progressive in males and leads to blindness. In the females of the family, who transmit the condition, fundus changes appear but do not lead to blindness or cause major functional disturbances.
