Figure 4. Retinal pigment epithelial changes
A & B. Ophthalmoscopic and early-phase angiogram showing some large drusen with slight staining (brackets). Mottled areas of hypopigmentation demonstrate more persistent staining (H), and focal areas of hyperpigmentation show blocked fluorescence (arrowheads).
