Blindness Low Vision

If my wife have Have low vision disability in the evenings. Night blindness.
There is any possibility to get my children also

My mother has night blindness, but neither I nor my siblings have it.

There are many different causes of night blindness, so it will depend a lot on what caused your wife's night blindness. I think that generally children of people with night blindness don't have a bigger chance than others of getting it. Of course there is always some chance that they will get it, but I'd say it's rather unlikely.

You could consult your wife's doctor if this is a big issue for you. I don't know your wife's medical history or what caused her night blindness, so I can only give you general info about it.

My father is 64 years old & a diabetic patient since 12years. Since 1 year he was complaining of low-vision. His vision became worse after the laser treatment & now he is semi-blind. He can't even see our faces but yes he can see the lights & identify if they r on or off. Please let me know if there is a way by which we can improve his vision by atleast 10% or is there any operation/medications to cure the same???
Actually he is having diabetic retinotherapy. The blindness due to diabetic. He can identify if the lights r on or off & his vision is very low. Is there any possible cure or treatment? please advise
Yes his diabetic is under control

If your father's blindness is caused by retinopathy, the laser should have improved his sight. If his vision worsened, he should see the ophthalmologist again. There is an operation that can be performed if the laser hasn't helped, a vitrectomy, but it is not pleasant. Either to describe or have done. I speak from personal experience as I had a vitrectomy 2 years ago. It has sorted out one of my eyes completely.
Unfortunately, the only "cure" is good diabetic control. If your dad's diabetes isn't controlled, his blindness may become total. I'm not trying to scare, just tell you how it is. I have had insulin dependent diabetes for 34 years & have retinopathy myself.

Male patient aged approx.70 years is suffering from "Low vision"-almost blindness.Disease is detected to be "Neo Vascular Membrane-Sub Retinal"which has affected his Rt.eye. His Lt.eye is also partially damaged and also has cataract. Where in India can we get the best treatment/surgery for the above type of disease? I need to know the name of the hospital/institute who has performed similar kind of treatments successfully and not on experimental basis.

Go to Chennai. They do one of the best eye surgeries in Regional Institute of Ophthalmology and Government Ophthalmic Hospital in Chennai. Or you could also try the Apollo Hospital in Sarita Vihar. It is the largest healthcare provider in Asia and the third largest in the world.

My 14 year old son has just been diagnosed with a degenerative eye disease called Cone rod distrophy (CRD). This rare eye disease we are told will result in poor/low vision or blindness along with colour and clarity distortion. We would like to know of any one else with the condition with information on what my son may expect in the future. He is experiencing problems seeing well at night and finds bright light a problem. He is now wearing sunglasses and a cap through-out the day. We are told he will experience a slow degeneration of his sight because he has damaged cones & rods in the back of his eyes.

Sounds similar to RP (retinitis pigmentosa) to me. All you can do is make sure he gets a healthy diet, exercises regularly, and takes supplements like pycnogenol and ginkgo biloba to help with circulation. Other than that, pray for a miracle.
