#lhon #leberhereditaryopticneuropathy #visionhealth
Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) is a rare mitochondrial condition leading to progressive vision loss due to damage to the optic nerves. Initially described by Theodor Leber, LHON typically affects young adults and is caused by mitochondrial DNA mutations that impair energy production in optic nerve cells. Key symptoms include sudden, painless vision loss in one eye, followed by the other, color vision issues, and light sensitivity. Diagnosis involves clinical assessment, family history, and genetic testing for mtDNA mutations. While there is no cure for LHON, supportive care and treatments like Idebenone, along with ongoing research, offer hope for better management and potential cures in the future.
