Abstract
Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) is a relatively new imaging technique that can be used to study retinal
diseases. It provides information on retinal metabolism and health. Several different pathologies can
be detected. Peculiar AF alterations can help the clinician to monitor disease progression and to better
understand its pathogenesis. In the present article, we review FAF principles and clinical applications.
