GNAT2-related retinopathy

GNAT2-related retinopathy is an inherited eye condition that affects the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye responsible for vision. The condition is caused by changes in both copies of the GNAT2 gene, which are passed on from the parents. This condition falls under the category of inherited retinopathies, meaning that it is due to genetic alterations and is present from birth. It is important to note that more detailed information about how the condition affects vision and its full range of impacts is currently limited.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

GNAT2-related retinopathy is caused by bi-allelic variants in the GNAT2 gene. This means that both copies of the gene carry changes that affect the function of the retina. The condition is inherited, which implies that each parent contributes one of the altered gene copies.

Information about treatment options is currently limited for this condition.

Information about prognosis and quality of life is currently limited for this condition.
