Abstract
The white dot syndromes are inflammatory diseases of unknown etiology which share several clinical features. The presence or absence of visual field defects, abnormal electroretinograms, lesions on indocyanine green angiography, and specific antiretinal antibodies may give us clues to their pathogenesis. Careful prospective studies into these features may enable us to differentiate between these diseases and facilitate further research toward developing effective treatments.
