Unilateral Retinitis Pigmentosa

Unilateral retinitis pigmentosa associated with exfoliation syndrome

“…In particular, syphilitic chorioretinitis may resemble retinitis pigmentosa and can be unilateral [19]. However, the results of serological studies of patients with uniocular pigmentary degeneration reported by Carr & Siegel [3], Shoji [18], Weiss & Nicholl [23], and Lauring [14], were all negative, as those in this report. Moreover, the ERG is only slightly reduced in chorioretinitis, while there is usually a strong reduction or absence in most generalized degenerations.…”

Unilateral pigmentary degeneration of the retina associated with heterochromia iridis

“…Vascular abnormalities may also occasionally induce pigmentary changes [4,11]. Doppler examination of the carotids in this patient revealed no significant impairment.…”

Diffuse Unilateral Subacute Neuroretinitis

“…The absence of a positive family history and failure of the disease to progress are recognized features of unilateral retinitis pigmentosa (Francois & Verriest 1952, Kolb & Galloway 1964, Carr & Siegal 1973. We believe that many cases previously reported as unilateral retinitis pigmentosa had DUSN.…”
