Abstract
X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is an X-linked inherited retinal dystrophy characterized by mild-to-severe visual impairment, splitting of the retinal layers, and a reduction in the dark-adapted b-wave amplitude on the electroretinogram. Typical clinical features include macular and peripheral schisis. Relatively common features reported include rhegmatogenous or tractional retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, retinal pigment epithelial changes, vitreous veils, and various retinal vascular abnormalities with or without exudation. Macular hole and macular folds are atypical presentations of XLRS, along with several other rare findings. Here, we report 4 cases of XLRS with atypical clinical presentations and review the literature on XLRS, with a focus on the variable clinical features of this condition.
