Inherited retinal dystrophies [PDF]
Abstract Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) are a diverse group of progressive blinding genetic diseases that can present from birth through to late middle age. Symptoms include loss of night vision, visual field, colour, and central acuity. Sophisticated imaging modalities and electrophysiology permit genotype–phenotype correlations.

Innate and Autoimmunity in the Pathogenesis of Inherited Retinal Dystrophy [PDF]
Inherited retinal dystrophies (RDs) are heterogenous in many aspects including genes involved, age of onset, rate of progression, and treatments. While RDs are caused by a plethora of different mutations, all result in the same outcome of blindness. While treatments, both gene therapy-based and drug-based, have been developed to slow or halt disease ...

The Special Electrophysiological Signs of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies [PDF]
The study aim was to analyze the electrophysiological signs of inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD). Full-field and multifocal (mf) electroretinography (ERG) was analysed in three groups: 21 normal subjects, 21 randomly selected IRD patients, and 21 patients randomly selected from each of eleven IRD groups.

microRNAs and inherited retinal dystrophies [PDF]
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) are a heterogeneous group of blinding diseases that affect more than 200,000 Americans and millions worldwide (1). Identification of genes that are responsible for IRD when defective is of great importance to the basic understanding as well as development of efficient gene diagnosis and treatment.
