Patients with aniridia lack accessible information about disease progression and management options

People diagnosed with total aniridia (absence of irises) struggle to find clear, reliable information about immediate complications (light sensitivity, vision problems) and long-term effects (glaucoma risk, corneal damage). Patients and families turn to medical Q&A forums because their doctors provide limited guidance, and existing medical resources are fragmented or too technical. Current solutions fail because aniridia is rare, so general ophthalmology resources don't address it specifically, and patients need both medical accuracy and practical living advice.
