Purpose: To describe the different clinical effects of two hotspots in the RP1L1 gene in the East Asian studies of occult macular dystrophy (OMD).
Participants and Methods: 51 participants from 30 families with OMD caused by pathogenic RP1L1 variants were enrolled. Patients were classified into two genotype groups; patients with p.R45W variant (group A) and subjects with missense variants located between amino acid 1196 and 1201 (group B). Clinical parameters were statistically compared between these two genotype groups, including age of symptom onset, age at examination, visual acuity in the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution unit (VA). The morphological features obtained with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography were also investigated utilising artificial intelligence.
Results: There are 29 patients in group A and 22 in group B. The median age of onset/examination was 14/42 years and 40/54 years in groups A and B, respectively. The median VA in the right/left eye of groups A and B was 0.70/0.70 and 0.35/0.46 LogMAR unit, respectively. Comparison analyses revealed statistically significant differences in terms of age of onset, age at the latest examination, and VA.
Conclusions: Different clinical severity derived from the two RP1L1 hotspots were identified; the severer phenotype of early onset and poor VA was related with p.R45W compared to 1196-1201. This genotype-phenotype association can be helpful for genetic counselling of patients regarding the visual severity.
