Follow-up and prognosis
Follow-up
Careful funduscopic examinations by a pediatric ophthalmologist or retina specialist should be performed at 6-12-month intervals in the first decade of life. Thereafter, patients can be monitored on an annual basis.
Prognosis
Visual prognosis is highly variable, depending on the XLRS phenotypic variability. With prompt identification and management of the disease, the vision could be preserved adequately.
