OMIM : ⁵⁶ Leber congenital amaurosis comprises a group of early-onset childhood retinal dystrophies characterized by vision loss, nystagmus, and severe retinal dysfunction. Patients usually present at birth with profound vision loss and pendular nystagmus. Electroretinogram (ERG) responses are usually nonrecordable. Other clinical findings may include high hypermetropia, photodysphoria, oculodigital sign, keratoconus, cataracts, and a variable appearance to the fundus (summary by Chung and Traboulsi, 2009). For a general description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of LCA, see 204000. (613837)

MalaCards based summary : Leber Congenital Amaurosis 11, also known as lca11, is related to severe early-childhood-onset retinal dystrophy and pseudoretinitis pigmentosa. An important gene associated with Leber Congenital Amaurosis 11 is IMPDH1 (Inosine Monophosphate Dehydrogenase 1), and among its related pathways/superpathways is Visual Cycle in Retinal Rods. Affiliated tissues include retina and eye, and related phenotypes are nystagmus and visual impairment

Disease Ontology : ¹² A Leber congenital amaurosis that has material basis in mutation n the IMPDH1 gene on chromosome 7q31.3-q32.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : ⁷³ Leber congenital amaurosis 11: A severe dystrophy of the retina, typically becoming evident in the first years of life. Visual function is usually poor and often accompanied by nystagmus, sluggish or near-absent pupillary responses, photophobia, high hyperopia and keratoconus.
