dc.descriptionThe present clinical case study deals with a 31-year-old male patient who, due to retinitis pigmentosa, has lost night vision after all the tests carried out, achieving a visual acuity of 20/60, which is corrected with optical aids. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) comprises a group of degenerative retinal diseases that affect visual field and function. It is characterized by night blindness and loss of. peripheral visual field, and usually has an early and juvenile onset. RP represents the fourth cause of blindness in the world; it has an approximate global prevalence of 1/4,000 and it is estimated that it affects more than 1 million people, it occurs more frequently in men. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an orphan disease that comprises a group of degenerative diseases of the retina. It affects the function and visual field of patients and is characterized by the progressive loss of photoreceptors, especially the rods. It is the most common hereditary degeneration of the retina that causes night blindness and peripheral visual field loss, in addition to other retinal changes, such as pigmentation in bone spicules, waxy pallor of the optic disc, and arteriolar attenuation. The age of onset of these signs and symptoms can vary from childhood to adulthood and their progression varies from patient to patient.es_ES

dc.description.abstractEl presente estudio de caso clínico trata de paciente masculino de 31 años que debido a la retinitis pigmentaria ha perdido visión nocturna después de todos los exámenes realizados logra mejorar una agudeza visual de 20/60 por lo cual se le corrige con ayudas ópticas. La retinosis pigmentaria (RP) comprende un grupo de enfermedades degenerativas de la retina que afectan la función y el campo visual. Se caracteriza por ceguera nocturna y pérdida de campo visual periférico, y suele tener debut precoz y juvenil.(García Dávila et al., 2020). La RP representa la cuarta causa de ceguera en el mundo; tiene una prevalencia global aproximada de 1/4.000 y se calcula que afecta a más de 1 millón de personas, se presenta más frecuentemente en hombres. La retinosis pigmentaria (RP) es una enfermedad huérfana que comprende un grupo de enfermedades degenerativas de la retina. Afecta la función y el campo visual de los pacientes y se caracteriza por la pérdida progresiva de los fotorreceptores, especialmente los bastones. Es la degeneración hereditaria más frecuente de la retina que ocasiona ceguera nocturna y pérdida de campo visual periférico, además de otras alteraciones retinianas, como la pigmentación en espículas óseas, palidez cérea del disco óptico y atenuación arteriolar. La edad de inicio de estos signos y síntomas puede variar desde la infancia hasta la edad adulta y su progresión varía según cada paciente.es_ES
