Specific Changes in OCT Imaging Associated with a Novel Mutation of the RS1 Gene in X-Linked Retinoschisis.

X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is a rare vitreoretinal dystrophy caused by molecular genetic changes in the gene. It usually manifests itself at a young age with symmetrical splitting within different layers of the retina and leads to a significant reduction in visual acuity. Correct diagnosis at older ages is difficult due to nonspecific changes in OCT scans.
