Summary Introduction

To determine: The molecular defects that occur in Oguchi disease.

Introduction:

Oguchi disease is a type of autosomal recessive disorder of retina which is characterized by congenital night blindness. Night blindness is eye disorder which is caused by nearsightedness, cataract or vitamin A deficiency.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The molecular defect leads to cause night blindness.
