Furthermore, This condition affects approximately 1 in 4,000 individuals worldwide and is one of the most common forms of inherited retinal dystrophies. Understanding the genetic inheritance and effects of retinitis pigmentosa is essential for diagnosis, management, and potential future treatments.   Genetic Inheritance of Retinitis Pigmentosa: Retinitis pigmentosa is primarily an inherited disorder caused by mutations in specific genes that play essential roles in the function and maintenance of retinal cells. The inheritance pattern…
