Retinitis Pigmentosa FAQs
What is Retinitis Pigmentosa?
Retinitis Pigmentosa refers to a group of diseases that involve the breakdown and loss of cells in the retina.
The deterioration of the photoreceptor cells leads to a gradual loss of sight. The photoreceptor cells found in the retinal tissue are responsible for converting light into electrical impulses readable by the brain.
What Causes Retinitis Pigmentosa?
Retinitis pigmentosa is a genetic disorder, which is caused by a genetic mutation of any of the 50 different genes.
So chances of contracting the genetic disorder mainly depends upon whether your parents had it before you. Though the disorder may be rare but can result in peripheral or complete vision loss and affects about 1 in every 4,000 people in the US as reported by the National Institute of Health.
What Are The Early Symptoms of RP?
The progressive symptoms of RP vary for each patient, depending on which gene mutation has caused their condition. But symptoms of RP typically appear early on in childhood which is why some people experience rapid vision loss in early adulthood, while others may be able to retain part of their vision until late 50’s.
The effects on children can result in difficulty to see around in the dark, and it may take them a longer time to adjust to changes in lighting.
Most patients also experience photophobia; a discomfort resulting from brightly lit places.
What Does RP Look Like?
Most people with RP undergo common vision problems such as the following:
