Sieving forms world consortium to search for retinoschisis gene Paul A. Sieving, professor of ophthalmology and director of the Macular and Retinal Degeneration Center has joined experts in Italy, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Finland and England to form a consortium in the search for the gene responsible for retinoschisis, an inherited form of macular degeneration. Retinoschisis affects men from childhood, causing progressive loss of central vision and inability to see detail. The world consortium was formed to speed the process of identifying the gene responsible for the disease. Sieving is a leading expert in macular and retinal degenerative diseases. For more information, call the Macular and Retinal Degeneration Center at the Kellogg Eye Center, 763-8097.
