  • Ages 20 to 30 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Study population: The patient's records gathered from outpatient internal medicine and pediatric encounters. Six patients met study inclusion criteria. Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients were collected. Relevant clinical and ophthalmic assessments, as visual acuity, fundus examination, complications and surgery type were also obtained. Visual acuity, in-clinic dilated fundus examination, optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography, macular OCT scan, and fundus photography were components of ophthalmic examinations. Fundus examination involved retinal inspection, visual acuity measured using tumbling E chart.

Who may be able to join

  • All patients from all age groups who were diagnosed with homocystinuria between 2018 and 2022 were included, regardless of whether the diagnosis was made biochemically (by exhibiting hyperhomocysteinaemia and hypermethioninaemia) or genetically (by discovering biallelic pathogenic mutations in the CBS gene)

Who cannot join

  • Patients with incomplete investigations for various reasons
