Ladies with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy: an atypical disease.

European journal of ophthalmology - 1 Jan 2000

Dandekar S S, Graham E M, Plant G T

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) is considered to be a disease predominantly affecting young males. The risk of women becoming symptomatic if they are carriers of a primary mutation is 1/5 of that in males. The disease however appears to behave differently in women in some instances. We describe three cases of ladies with LHON and discuss the importance of making the diagnosis. CASE REPORTS: A...
