Pathogenic mutations in the OPA1 gene can be associated with Autosomal Dominant Optic Atrophy (ADOA). In approximately 20 % of patients with OPA1 mutations, a more complex neurodegenerative disorder with extraocular manifestations, known as ADOA Plus, can arise. 12 members of a multigenerational family were assessed clinically and screened for a genetic mutation in OPA1. Eight family members displayed...
