Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD) is a rare autosomal disorder characterized by the presence of intraretinal crystalline deposits and later chorioretinal degeneration. We describe a case of BCD with macular cysts. Macular cysts have been reported in many retinal dystrophies such as Juvenile X-linked retinoschisis, Goldmann-Favre Syndrome, and fenetrated sheen dystrophy. BCD with macular cysts is rarely reported in the literature.
