Pseudovitelliform Maculopathy Associated with Hereditary Hemochromatosis: Two Case Reports

2023-06-14

Abstract excerpt

Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is an inherited iron metabolism disorder. It is caused by an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from a C28Y8 HFE gene mutation. Mutations in the HFE gene may result in iron accumulation and oxidative stress in the retina, resulting in macular degeneration. This article describes two patients with HH who developed vision difficulties. Both patients were subjected to a retinal exa...
