Fig. 1.22 OCT image shows defect of retinal pigment epithelium at fovea. Please note that the
reflectivity of choroid increase because of reduced shadowing effect of RPE. Photoreceptor inner
segment ellipsoid zone disruption and atrophy of outer nuclear layer can be found in the region
of geographic atrophy. At temporal perifoveal region, RPE is elevated and there is mid-reflective
material under RPE. These are drusen
