Abstract excerpt
We reported here the clinical, genetic, and molecular characterization of Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) with C5601T mutation in seven Chinese families. The ophthalmologic examinations of seven Chinese families who were clinically diagnosed LHON were conducted. Strikingly, these families exhibited very low penetrance of visual impairment, and the penetrance was 9.5%, 14.3%, 4.5%, 8.3%, 10.0%, 22.2%...
