RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA

Description

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal dystrophy leading to progressive loss of the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium and resulting in blindness usually after several decades.

Most common symptoms of RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA

  • Intellectual disability
  • Nystagmus
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment
  • Cataract
  • Visual impairment
