purpose : to evaluate the incidence of leber’s congenital amaurosis (lca) in low vision children referred to electrophysiology ward of farabi eye hospital , and review the clinical features of disease and electroretiongraphy (erg) test values to confirm the diagnosis and severity of the disease in iran . design: prospective observational case series methods : two-hundred and fifteen cases of lo...

Test code: OP1201 The Blueprint Genetics Congenital Stationary Night Blindness Panel is a 17 gene test for genetic diagnostics of patients with clinical suspicion of congenital stationary night blindness. The panel covers genes associated with autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant and X-linked forms of congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB). The clinical utility of this diagnostic panel...

The gene for complete congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB1) has been assigned to the Xp11.3 region. However, little evidence has been provided for the assignment of the incomplete congenital stationary night blindness gene (CSNB2). Here we present the clinical and molecular data from a CSNB2 family which show a key recombinant assigning the CSNB2 gene proximal to MAOB.

In normal subjects the later part of the cone a-wave to a brief flash increases in amplitude after 50-100 ms darkness due to a contribution from secondary hyperpolarising cells. We recorded these responses along with clinical ON and OFF ERGs in patients with inner retinal dysfunction to see if this part of the a-wave is affected. Patients with autoimmune-like retinopathy and CSNB2 had abnormal ...

Electroretinographic studies of myctalopic Appaloosa horses demonstrated photopic and scotopic abnormalities similar to those in humans with congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) of the Schubert-Bornschein type. The phototopic abnormalities consisted of reduced b-wave amplitudes and slower than normal b-wave implict time. The dark-adapted ERG's consisted of a simple negative potential; t...

PURPOSE High myopia is a common genetic variant that severely affects vision. Genes responsible for myopia without linked additional functional defects have not been identified. Mutations in the nyctalopin gene (NYX) located at Xp11.4 are responsible for a complete form of congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB1). High myopia is usually observed in patients with CSNB1. This study was desig...
