Bietti’s lucid dystrophy (BCD) is uncommon inherited heart disease characterized by crystals in the clear-cut coating of the heart. The symptoms of BCD include: crystals in the cornea ; yellow, glossy deposits on the retina; and liberal wasting of the retina, choriocapillaries and choroid.

This tends to head to liberal night blindness and visual area constriction. BCD is an uncommon disease and appears to be more popular in folk with Asian descent. People with BCD have crystals in some of their light-colored blood cells (lymphocytes) that can be seen by using an electron microscope.
