 | Pupillary responses to light were slow and slight; both pupils were
widely mydriatic in room light. |
| Right eye: Cursory exam of the ocular anterior segment did not reveal
abnormalities. The ocular fundus had marked retinal vessel attenuation and
marked tapetal hyperreflectivity. |
| Left eye: Similar to right eye. |
| Mickey has advanced, diffuse retinal degeneration which is compatible
with either long term (probably at least a year) taurine deficiency or
heritable progressive retinal degeneration. No treatment would be of benefit
and even if taurine was the culprit and could be reinstated, the degeneration
is too far advanced for improvement. |
