Flashing lights in vision (photopsia) or discomfort due to bright light or glare (photophobia) is often experienced by patients with Stargardt. However, little is understood about what causes these symptoms, their prevalence or the impact they can have on people’s lives.

Omar Mahroo, consultant ophthalmologist and professor of retinal neuroscience at University College London, and his colleague Dr Matteo Rizzi will join our second My Macular and Me webinar this month to discuss their latest research on the topic. To find out more, join our webinar on Thursday 30 November at 7pm.
