Abstract excerpt
Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA)/early-onset severe retinal dystrophy (EOSRD) stand as primary causes of incurable childhood blindness. This study investigates the clinical and molecular architecture of syndromic and non-syndromic LCA/EOSRD within a Chilean cohort (67 patients/60 families). Leveraging panel sequencing, 95.5% detection was achieved, revealing 17 genes and 126 variants (32 unique). CRB1, LCA5, and...
