RGD uses the Human Disease Ontology (DO, https://disease-ontology.org/) for disease curation across species. RGD automatically downloads each new release of the ontology on a monthly basis. Some additional terms which are required for RGD's curation purposes but are not currently covered in the official version of DO have been added. As corresponding terms are added to DO, these custom terms are retired and the DO terms substituted in existing annotations and subsequently used for curation.
Rare disease characterized by suprachoroidal fluid accumulation between the CHOROID and the SCLERA, annular detachment of the CHOROID, often with secondary RETINAL DETACHMENT; OPTIC DISK EDEMA, and minimal signs of UVEITIS and INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE changes.
