INTRODUCTION
DNA-sequencing is not readily available in countries with little research resources or where health insurance does not cover the costs. This is especially true for very rare (orphan) inheritable retinal diseases. We wanted to develop a rapid targeted-sequencing protocol for eight genes involved in Familial Exudative Vitreo-Retinopathy (FEVR), Norrie Disease, and Retinoschisis, at greatly reduced cost.
