lnherited Retinal Disease

In this book, we first provide an overview of inherited retinal diseases, including molecular genetics, general principle of treatment, genetic counseling, and novel treatment methods under research. For each individual disorder, essential information regarding the genetics, diagnosis, clinical features, and possible management are discussed based on up-to-date knowledge. Experts for each inherited retinal disease were recruited as authors of this treatise, and they tried to include as many images as possible which they encountered during clinical practice. Undoubtedly, this treatise will guide the practice of not only ophthalmologists but also medical students who are seeing patients with inherited retinal diseases. I would like to thank all of the authors and the project coordinators for their special contribution to this work.
