Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we don't have any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm afraid my condition might worsen. Please tell me about the hereditary issues related to night blindness.Doctor's answer:
Hello. Night blindness is not hereditary. Your night blindness is caused by genetic mutations due to close relatives among your parents. Children born will not experience this phenomenon again. During pregnancy, supplement more VA and eat foods rich in VA, such as animal liver. VA deficiency can also cause night blindness. There are many reasons that trigger genetic counseling, and patients need timely treatment. It is recommended to seek treatment at a specialized hospital for your condition. Pay attention to the development of your condition, avoid treating it recklessly, and pay attention to self-care, including a balanced diet and maintaining cleanliness. Best wishes for your recovery!
