Patients and their families are assessed as a unit.
In addition to clinical examinations, numerous investigations ranging from visual fields, photography, electrophysiological testing, and genetic analyses are performed.
The goal of the clinic is not only to diagnose genetic eye disease, but also to give patients and their families information about their disease, and information about risks to future generations.
