Brief Summary:
The objective of this study is to develop the comprehensive visual function evaluation method in severe visually impaired patient

Condition or disease
Retinitis Pigmentosa

Detailed Description:
This study is a prospective observational study which consists of 4 Parts; Part 1A, 1B, 2 and 3. Part 1A has been conducted on 6 subjects diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa. Additional examination will be performed using alternative devices imported outside Japan on subjects who completed Part 1A and re-consented (Part 1B). Based on the interim result of Part 1A, Part 2 will be conducted on another 6 subjects with retinitis pigmentosa with improved methodology and the devices used in Part 1B. Part 3 will be conducted in 6 healthy volunteers to obtain comparative data using devices used in Part 1B.
