How does one get involved in a clinical trial? I have been diagnosed with Retinal Pigmentosis caused by the RHO gene. I am now apparently legally blind but not looking forward to complete blindness one day. I received more information on this link than Ive received from all of the doctors I have been to and for once I feel hopeful.

Are they looking at the PRPH2 issues? The hardest part for me is not being able to fight this without treatment options I have already lost all of my night vision and it’s hard for me to read with all the spots I found out that I had this 2 1/2 years ago. I’m devastated.
