    Retinitis Pigmentosa in Uzbekistan: Care and Remote Review

    Understanding Retinitis Pigmentosa in Uzbekistan

    RP is a group of inherited conditions in which the rod and cone cells of the retina gradually break down. Night vision fades first, then side vision narrows, and central vision often lasts longest.

    In communities where marriage between relatives is common, recessive forms of RP can affect several siblings or cousins. Reports from every affected relative help doctors recognise the pattern, and genetic counselling can guide choices about children.

    How RP is confirmed

    Reports in Russian or Uzbek are welcome. Send them as they are.

    • Dilated retinal examinationLooks for the typical pigment deposits.
    • ERGMeasures how the retina responds to light.
    • OCT scanShows the layers of the retina.
    • Visual field testMaps side vision.
    • Genetic testingOffered where it can be arranged.

    Treatments with genuine evidence

    Which ones apply depends on your RP type and eye health.

    Vitamin A palmitate

    Frequently asked questions

    Can RP be cured?

    Not in general. One gene therapy is approved, but only for a specific genetic type.

    Should I wait for a cure before doing anything?

    No. Treating cataract, using low-vision support and monitoring regularly help now.

    Can my children be tested?

    Genetic counselling can explain the options. Send your own reports first.
