Neuropathy, hereditary motor and sensory, 6B, with optic atrophy

An autosomal recessive neurologic disorder characterized by early-onset optic atrophy, progressive visual loss, and peripheral sensorimotor neuropathy manifesting as axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, with variable age at onset and severity.
