Description: (OMIM) Autosomal dominant optic atrophy is characterized by an insidious onset of visual impairment in early childhood with moderate to severe loss of visual acuity, temporal optic disc pallor, color vision deficits, and centrocecal scotoma of variable density (Votruba ...
Clinical Description OMIM Iverson (1958) reported congenital optic atrophy in 3 generations. The clear autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance and congenital nature distinguished it from Leber hereditary optic atrophy (LHON; 535000).

Caldwell et al. (1971) described 2 families with ...

Molecular genetics OMIM Alexander et al. (2000) and Delettre et al. (2000) independently identified a gene (OPA1; 605290) in the optic atrophy-1 candidate region that encodes a polypeptide with homology to dynamin-related GTPases. In patients with optic atrophy, both Alexander et ...
Population genetics OMIM In a population-based epidemiologic study of autosomal dominant optic atrophy in the north of England, Yu-Wai-Man et al. (2010) determined that the minimum point prevalence was 2.87 per 100,000, or approximately 1 in 35,000. The point prevalence was ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews Optic atrophy type 1 (OPA1 or Kjer type optic atrophy) is diagnosed in individuals with the following:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews Variable expressivity of optic atrophy type 1 (OPA1) is observed both between and within families. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews No correlation has been observed between the degree of visual impairment and the location or type of mutation [Puomila et al 2005]. ...
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews OPA3. OPA3 consists of three exons and encodes for an inner mitochondrial membrane protein. The function of this protein is not well known. Two disorders are associated with OPA3 mutations: ...
Management GeneReviews In order to establish the extent of disease in an individual with optic atrophy type 1 (OPA1), the following evaluations are recommended:...
