	Genetic Conditions: Eyes & Vision With the recent advances in molecular genetic techniques, new genes that cause eye disease are being identified. In many instances, these findings allow researchers to develop innovative strategies to prevent or slow the progress of genetic eye diseases. - A - AAA see Triple A syndrome Abetalipoproteinemia Acanthocytosis see Abetalipoproteinemia Aceruloplasminemia Achalasia-addisonian syndrome see Triple A syndrome Achalasia-Addisonianism-Alacrima syndrome see Triple A syndrome Achalasia-alacrima syndrome see Triple A syndrome ADOA see Optic atrophy type 1 Adrenoleukodystrophy see X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy Adrenomyeloneuropathy see X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy Adult premature aging syndrome see Werner syndrome Adult Progeria see Werner syndrome Adult Refsum disease see Refsum disease AEG syndrome see SOX2 anophthalmia syndrome Alacrima-achalasia-adrenal insufficiency neurologic disorder see Triple A syndrome Albinism, Ocular see Ocular albinism Albinism, Oculocutaneous see oculocutaneous albinism ALD (Adrenoleukodystrophy) see X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy Allgrove syndrome see Triple A syndrome ALMS see Alström syndrome Alport syndrome Alström syndrome Anderson-Warburg syndrome see Norrie disease Aniridia Anophthalmia-esophageal-genital syndrome see SOX2 anophthalmia syndrome Apolipoprotein B deficiency see abetalipoproteinemia ARD see Refsum disease Arts syndrome Ataxia-deafness-optic atrophy, lethal see Arts syndrome Ataxia, fatal X-linked, with deafness and loss of vision see Arts syndrome Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia Atrophia bulborum hereditaria see Norrie disease Autosomal dominant Opitz syndrome (ADOS) see Opitz G/BBB syndrome Autosomal dominant optic atrophy see Optic atrophy type 1 -
