Adult-onset foveomacular dystrophy (AOFVD) is a retinal pattern dystrophy that may affect up to 1 in 7,400 individuals. There is much that is unknown regarding this disease’s epidemiology, risk factors for development, and rate of progression through its four stages. Advancements in retinal imaging over the past 15 years have enabled improved characterization of the different stages of AOFVD. These imaging advancements also offer new ways of differentiating AOFVD from phenotypically similar retinal diseases like age-related macular degeneration and Best disease. This review synthesizes the most recent discoveries regarding imaging correlates within AOFVD as well as risk factors for the development of AOFVD, complications of AOFVD, and treatment options. Our aim is to provide ophthalmologists a succinct resource so that they may offer clarity, guidance, and appropriate monitoring and treatments for their patients with suspected AOFVD.
