A sensorineural hearing loss may also be present in childhood but sometimes not until later. Hyperreflexia with extensor plantar responses and Achilles tendon contractures are often present later. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Presentation [ 5, 6 ] Refsum's disease presents with anosmia and early-onset retinitis pigmentosa, with variable neuropathy, deafness, ataxia and ichthyosis. The age of presentation varies from age 7 months to over 50 years. [patient.info]

Occasionally patients will present with late-onset forms of this disease. [neuroweb.us]

Diagnosis and Prognosis: The diagnosis is most likely made collaboratively by an ophthalmologist and a neurologist. It may require testing by an ERG (electroretinogram), and MRI imaging. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Prognosis Although there are many (often severe) clinical features associated with Refsum's disease, it is partially treatable with dietary restriction. [patient.info]

The prognosis is usually bad with survival rates less than a few years after onset. [neuroweb.us]
