The first three studies included subjects aged 45 or<br>50 to 74 years old. The Hemoccult test was offered every 2 years to half of the target population, the other half served as<br>a control.

The study focused on families that had the history of night blindness, and<br>entire blood samples were taken for DNA extraction. Exon 4 of the GRM6 gene was targeted using specific primers to<br>amplify the targeted DNA fragments. Gel electrophoresis and sequencing techniques were used to examine the<br>amplified fragments. However, there were no significant alterations in the GRM6 Exon 4 area in our findings,<br>indicating that this specific gene may have no role in night blindness in the examined families. The work emphasizes the<br>significance of comprehending the numerous genetic mechanisms that contribute to congenital fixed night blindness, as<br>well as the involvement of the GRM6 gene in retinal function. The study focused at the GRM6 gene in connection to<br>congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB). The GRM6 gene was premeditated in seven families having night<br>blindness symptoms. Blood samples were taken, DNA was extracted by organic method and specific primers for Exon 4<br>of the GRM6 gene were designed.
