[Usher's syndrome].
OBJECTIVE
to show the manner of diagnose of this syndrome and to evaluate the possibilities of treatment MATERIAL AND METHOD--there are shown: --ophthalmological and ENT clinical examination --visual field test--adaptometry--audiometry --impedance--auditive evoked potentials--cataract extraction (phacoemulsification).


RESULTS
After cataract extraction the visual acuity increase.


CONCLUSIONS
For the diagnosis we need both the diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa and neurosensorial deafness. For the certainty of the diagnosis genetic tests are required. The treatment of associate ocular pathology may increase the visual status.
