Examinations performed before and during treatment included visual acuity (VA), spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, and electroretinography. Following total 48 weeks of treatment, VA decreased from 20/30 OD, 20/200 OS, to 20/40 OD, CF OS. [ijo.in]

Prognosis
Long-term prognosis of patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease diagnosed by newborn screening and treated since birth. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
In the infantile-onset form symptoms become apparent within the first few months of life and prognosis is poor such that most patients die within the first year or two of life without treatment. 5 Patients with classic infantile-onset Pompe disease are [sanofigenzymeonline.com.au]
The wide range of disease severity and the overlapping of many signs can make pedigree construction and the determination of recurrence risks and prognosis challenging. The only recourse may be genotyping. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
