Chiesi: Adboard on idebenone for Leber Hereditary optic Neuropathy

Activiteit: Joint or sponsored appointments or secondments with industry and commerce

Description

Use of idebenone was discussed, as well as its reimbursement. I also requested to be able to get reimbursement for idebenone when working as a neuro-ophthalmologist in UZ Brussel. Currently, we need to refer the patient elsewhere to get reimbursement, although the genetic screening is performed at UZ Brussel. LHON is a genetic disease causing bilateral blindness by causing an acute optic neuropathy.
