Abstract
The Usher Syndromes are a group of autosomal recessive disorders characterized by congenital sensorineural deafness and progressive pigementory retinopathy. Several types of Usher syndromes (Ush) have been distinguished by age of onset, rate of progression and severity of clinical symptoms.
