Usher syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by dual sensory impairment-congenital or early-onset hearing loss combined with progressive vision loss due to retinitis pigmentosa. It is genetically heterogeneous, with three major clinical types (I, II, III) and multiple associated gene mutations such as MYO7A, USH2A, CDH23, PCDH15, and CLRN1. Disease severity varies across subtypes, influencing treatment strategies and long-term outcomes.
Current therapeutic management focuses on supportive audiological and ophthalmological care, including hearing aids, cochlear implants, mobility training, low-vision aids, and vitamin supplementation. However, the field is rapidly shifting toward gene therapy, antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), RNA editing, and optogenetics, representing major long-term growth segments.
