The novel compound heterozygous variants, c.1066C>T (p.Pro356Ser) and c.1102+2T>C, in the MFSD8 gene are likely responsible for the isolated macular dystrophy phenotype in this family. This study enlarged the MFSD8 gene mutant spectrum and might provide more accurate genetic counseling for this family.
