A genetic diagnosis for IRDs is challenging since &amp;gt;280 genes are associated with these conditions. While whole exome sequencing (WES) is commonly used by diagnostic facilities, the costs and required infrastructure prevent its global applicability. Previous studies have shown the cost-effectiveness of sequence analysis using single molecule Molecular Inversion Probes (smMIPs) in a cohort of patients diagnosed with Stargardt disease and other maculopathies.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Here, we introduce a smMIPs panel that targets the exons and splice sites of all currently known genes associated with RP and LCA, the entire\n                    <jats:italic>RPE65<\/jats:italic>\n                    gene, known causative deep-intronic variants leading to pseudo-exons, and part of the RP17 region associated with autosomal dominant RP, by using a total of 16,812 smMIPs. The RP-LCA smMIPs panel was used to screen 1,192 probands from an international cohort of predominantly RP and LCA cases.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results and discussion:<\/jats:bold>\n                    After genetic analysis, a diagnostic yield of 56% was obtained which is on par with results from WES analysis.
