Study your rare eye gene and track retinal disease over time
Part of Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study builds a registry and tracks the natural history of rare retinal dystrophies while also testing people for disease-causing gene variants. It may help researchers better understand what causes retinal degeneration and how it progresses.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (or your child) are willing and able to consent and communicate during the study
- You can complete the study’s check-in visits, questionnaires, and other screening tests
- You must be age 4 or older
- Genetic testing must show a rare disease-causing variant in a listed retinal dystrophy gene (from an approved lab)
- Both eyes must have a retinal dystrophy diagnosis and allow clear eye photos for imaging
- Your past eye health and treatments must not interfere with imaging or study measurements

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is a registry, meaning it collects information about people with inherited retinal (retina) diseases. It may help researchers learn how these conditions progress and connect you with future studies or treatments.
This study will check if certain vision tests work well in people with retinal diseases like retinitis pigmentosa or Stargardt. Results will help design future trials.
This study is looking at how people with inherited retinal disease that affects peripheral vision see and move around. It will test a new way to measure vision and navigation to see if it can help doctors understand how the disease affects daily life.
This study follows people with retinitis pigmentosa caused by changes in the EYS gene over 4 years. It collects data on how the disease progresses and does not test any new treatments.
This study uses special pictures of the back of your eye (retinal imaging) in people with inherited retinal degeneration. It may help researchers learn how these conditions look and change over time, and it can be a way for you to receive detailed eye imaging.
This study collects samples like blood and a small skin biopsy (and sometimes urine, hair, or saliva) to better understand causes of eye diseases. The goal is to study eye conditions and may help researchers build better tests or treatments.
