Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Although most (or even all) genes that can cause achromatopsia (ACHM) when mutated are known, some patients are still negative for mutations even after screening the coding sequence of all known genes. Our aim was to characterize the genetic and clinical aspects of a deep intronic (c.1663-1205G>A, IVS14-1205G>A) CNGB3 variant. Methods: Clinical evaluation included visual acuity testing, refractive error,...
