Genetic testing in retinal dystrophies
Developments in genetics and technology are bringing with them incredible possibilities in the management and potential cure of patients with retinal dystrophy. In this editorial, we address the issue of genetic testing in retinal dystrophies. In the first section, we provide some background information about genetic testing.

Relative frequency of inherited retinal dystrophies in Brazil
Among the Brazilian population, the frequency rates of inherited retinal dystrophies and their causative genes are underreported. To increase the knowledge about these dystrophies in our population, we retrospectively studied the medical records of 1,246

The Molecular Basis of Retinal Dystrophies in Pakistan [PDF]
The customary consanguineous nuptials in Pakistan underlie the frequent occurrence of autosomal recessive inherited disorders, including retinal dystrophy (RD). In many studies, homozygosity mapping has been shown to be successful in mapping susceptibility loci for autosomal recessive inherited disease.

CDHR1 mutations in retinal dystrophies [PDF]
We report ophthalmic and genetic findings in patients with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP), cone-rod dystrophy (CRD) or cone dystrophy (CD) harboring potential pathogenic variants in the CDHR1 gene.

Different Phenotypes in Pseudodominant Inherited Retinal Dystrophies
Retinal dystrophies (RD) are a group of Mendelian disorders caused by rare genetic variations leading to blindness. A pathogenic variant may manifest in both dominant or recessive mode and clinical and genetic heterogeneity makes it difficult to ...
