Latest news on 'cure' for Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP)
Those of us with RP know that from time to time we hear about cures for it. I remind readers that Usher Syndrome is a variant of RP whereby the retinal problem is associated with a hearing loss which may be very serious (Type 1) or less serious (Type 2). Sooner or later RP will be defeated but probably not in my lifetime.
The latest advance seems to be taking place at the University of Southern California in the USA. This was covered by the BBC News website on Friday, 16 February 2007 which can be seen here.
