Familial benign fleck retina (FRFB) is an autosomal recessive condition associated with a distinctive retinal appearance. Affected individuals are asymptomatic, but fundus examination reveals a striking pattern of diffuse, yellow-white, fleck-like lesions extending to the far periphery of the retina but sparing the foveal region. Biallelic mutations in PLA2G5, encoding group V phospholipase A2, cause FRFB.
