Also known as the British Retinitis Pigmentosa Society, a registered charity dedicated to finding a treatment or cure for retinitis pigmentosa, we also pride ourselves on providing high quality information about RP and a telephone helpline for those who need to know more or need help.
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a hereditary disease of the eye that leads to deterioration of vision and blindness. You can learn lots more about the eye, about RP and about research work using the links across the top of this page. Through stimulating and funding cutting edge research we will find a treatment.
