Question: To characterise the clinical features of the disease; to test for possible genetic heterogeneity; to further refine the locus for the DOA on the distal long arm of chromosome 3.

Methods:Clinical/Laboratory: genealogy; clinical exam; molecular biology; psychophysics; electrophysiology; colour psychophysics

Sample:100 patients with dominant optic atrophy.

Outcome Measures :To understand pathophysiology of the disease.
