What is X linked retinoschisis?
For this My Macular and Me podcast, we welcome Professor Andrew Lotery from the University of Southampton. He explores the rare macular condition called X linked retinoschisis. The condition is one of a number of inherited retinal diseases the Southampton team is researching. Professor Lotery provides an update on research into X linked retinoschisis and what this could mean for other rare types of macular disease.
The Macular Society has been supporting people with macular conditions for over 30 years. The right information and support can help people overcome their worries and retain their independence. We provide free information and support to those with macular disease, along with their family and friends. If you or a family member need advice or support, please make sure to reach out. No one has to face macular disease alone. Please call us on 0300 3030 111.
