Informations about the disease
Optic atrophy or optic neuropathy is the end stage of a disease process affecting the retinogenic part of the visual pathway by neurovascular degeneration. Hereditary optic neuropathies are also characterized by degeneration of retinal ganglion cells, leading to bilateral optic atrophy and progressive loss of visual acuity. In addition, these patients often suffer from impaired color vision. The most common forms of hereditary optic neuropathies are dominant optic atrophy and Leber hereditary optic neuropathy. In both disorders, neuronal and axonal, the energy supply by mitochondria is affected. Optic atrophy can occur at any age, and all classical modes of inheritance are represented. The DNA diagnostic yield reaches approximately 20%. Therefore, inconspicuous molecular genetic findings do not mean exclusion of the suspected ophthalmologic diagnosis.
