PURPOSE: Pathogenic variations in the ABCA4 gene are a leading cause of vision loss in patients with inherited retinal diseases. ABCA4-retinal dystrophies are clinically heterogeneous, presenting with mild to severe degeneration of the retina. The purpose of this study was to clinically and genetically characterize patients with ABCA4-retinal dystrophies in Norway and describe phenotype-genotype associations....
