- DJMcK contribution to this paper lay primarily in performing the objective, electrophysiological testing of macular function in human subjects with the specific retinal dystrophy associated with identified genetic mutation. Patients were assessed at University of Bradford where they had flash and pattern electroretinograms recorded to provide a phenotypic characterisation of the genotype. These results were compared with age-matched normal controls allowing identification of severe deficits of macular function. DJMcK produced figure S3 which appeared in the supplemental data section published with the main paper. DJMcK drafted the relevant results section and provided critical input by revising the manuscript before submission.
