Medical Marijuana is used widely, and its effects on the visual system and the function of
the retina have not been investigated thoroughly. Some evidence suggests that cannabinoids
may be beneficial in certain degenerative diseases of the retina.
The purpose of the study is

2. To examine the effect of cannabis derivatives on the retina of retinitis pigmentosa
patients
