Description
Xanthe Bell, John Grigg, Clare Fraser, and Elisa Cornish published a 2026 scoping review on vision and driving in people with inherited retinal disorders. These disorders eat away at side vision, and keeping a driver's licence matters greatly to patients. Countries set no shared visual standard for licensing, and clinic tests may not predict real road performance.
The team searched databases and other sources and found 193 publications. Only three met their criteria for review. Those studies came from two countries and used crash records or driving simulators to gauge performance. The review asks what share of patients meet field requirements or pass a driving test, and how field loss maps to safety. The thin evidence base is itself a finding.
