Abstract

Objective: To analyze retinitis pigmentosa as a leading cause of blindness of genetic origin. Method: Descriptive documentary, 15 scientific articles published in PubMed were reviewed. Conclusion: The findings of the review indicate that RP is caused by genetic mutations affecting photoreceptors in the retina. These mutations can lead to photoreceptor degeneration and death, resulting in progressive vision loss.
