Elucidating the genetic landscape of inherited retinal disorders in India

Our analyses draw a comprehensive sketch of publication-derived demographics and genetic insights into major IRDs reported in India. They emphasize the urgent need for comprehensive and timely clinical and genetic reporting, since Indian IRD research remains fragmented. This calls for integrated nationwide efforts in systematic reporting through an extensive national IRD case registry for improving diagnostic accuracy, enhancing patient recruitment for clinical trials, and expanding access to emerging therapeutics.
