We are proud to partner with @Invisionbcd in the BY PATIENTS, FOR PATIENTS ™ campaign for #BiettiCrystallineDystrophy (BCD). BCD is a rare blinding disease. It is often misdiagnosed as #RetinitisPigmentosa (RP) or Stargardt Disease. youtu.be/eFogU2bfxcw

Are you an RP patient? Do you have crystals in the retina? If so, you may have Bietti’s Crystalline Dystrophy (BCD). BCD is an autosomal recessive #RetinitisPigmentosa (RP) caused by mutations in the CYP4V2 gene. Potential treatments are being developed for BCD. @Invisionbcd
BCD flyer. Bietti’s Crystalline Dystrophy (BCD) is an often misdiagnosed blinding disease. How to spot BCD? BCD patients have small yellow-white crystals in the retina. Crystals may not be obvious in all BCD patients. Near-infrared imaging can enhance the detection of crystals in BCD. BCD is often misdiagnosed as other retinal degenerative diseases such as Stargartdt’s disease, Choroideremia or as Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) in general. BCD is an autosomal recessive RP. Some BCD patients do not have a family history. Use CYP4V2 gene test to diagnose or confirm BCD. BCD symptoms include night blindness, photophobia, distorted vision, impaired visual acuity and visual field and eventually legal blindness. Potential treatments are being developed for BCD. For more information on BCD, visit www.InvincibleVision.org Invincible Vision is a BCD patient-driven non-profit organization.

Diva on bietti's crystalline dystrophy (BCD). BCD is a blinding disease. Patients have yellow-white crystals in the retina. It is caused by mutations in the CYP4V2 gene. Currently, BCD is untreatable. ReflectionBio is developing BCD gene therapy. youtu.be/FS4jCA5S2DU

businesswire.com/news/home/2… Our Founder’s story: I am a rare disease patient. In the process of turning blind and searching for a cure, I founded ReflectionBio to drive orphan drug R&D. Today, our “By Patients, For Patients” approach achieved a milestone.
